I've always been critical of La Tuk's ice coverage and speed, but you cannot fault her jump technique, it's wonderful because she is coached by the best jump technician in the business.
I was going to say there is plenty to critique about her skating, but not her jump technique. I agree she generally has the best jump technique of anyone competing right now. She is often cited as the textbook example of how one is to properly execute them. Her jumps are all rooted in proper technique and are not dependent upon whipping around and contorting a prepubescent body
