Ice rink leap (4)

I believe the answer is:

axel

(Other definitions for axel that I've seen before include "Figure-skating jump" , "Ice-skating jump" , "What skater may do" , "Manoeuvre by skater" , "part of skating performance" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the LA Times and the USA Today.
