Kurt Browning of Canada landed the first ratified quadruple jump (a toe loop) in his free skating.[1] Jozef Sabovcik of Czechoslovakia had landed a quad toe loop at the 1986 European Championships which was recognized at the event but then ruled invalid three weeks later due to a touchdown with his free foot.[2]
