Mao Asada (浅田 真央, Asada Mao, born 25 September 1990) is a former Japanese competitive figure skater. She is the 2010 Olympic silver medalist, a three-time World champion (2008, 2010, 2014), a three-time Four Continents champion (2008, 2010, 2013), and a four-time Grand Prix Final champion (2005–06, 2008–09, 2012–13, 2013–14). She is the only female figure skater who has landed three triple Axel jumps in one competition, which she achieved at the 2010 Winter Olympics.

Asada is also the 2005 World Junior champion, the 2004–05 Junior Grand Prix Final champion, and a six-time Japanese national champion (2006–2010, 2012–2013).

She held the world record for the ladies' short program score, until the record was broken by Evgenia Medvedeva at the 2016–17 Grand Prix Final.^[12] A former prodigy, Asada is the fifth woman and the first junior girl to land the triple axel, accomplishing this feat at the 2004–05 Junior Grand Prix Final. She won her first Grand Prix Final at the age of 15. Considered by many to be the best figure skater in the world at that time, Asada was 87 days too young to compete at the 2006 Winter Olympics. She is the first figure skater in a singles discipline from Asia to win multiple world championships. At the 2013 Skate America, she became the first singles skater, male or female, to win all seven of the current events on the Grand Prix series.^[14] She holds 15 Grand Prix series titles, the third most of all time. At the 2014 Winter Olympics, Asada successfully accomplished 8 triple jumps in her individual free skate, becoming the first lady to ever do so, even though 2 were downgraded for lacking rotations. ^[15] Due to her artistic interpretation, international success since the young age of 15, rare ability to accomplish the triple Axel, and collection of ISU titles surpassing any other ladies singles figure skater during her time, she has established herself as one of the most highly recognized athletes in Japan and is widely considered to be among the best ladies figure skaters of all time.^[16][17]

She went on to the 2015 NHK Trophy and won the bronze after several problems with her jumping passes. Asada's Grand Prix results qualified her to compete at the 2015–16 Grand Prix Final, where she finished sixth.

Asada went on to win bronze at the 2015–16 Japan Championships. She was selected to compete at both the 2016 Four Continents Championships and 2016 World Championships, though she opted to skip the former in order to focus on the latter.^[73] In April 2016, Asada finished seventh at worlds.^[74]

2016–17 season

Asada began her season with a silver medal at the 2016 CS Finlandia Trophy, having finished second to Canada's Kaetlyn Osmond. Her Grand Prix assignments were 2016 Skate America and 2016 Trophee de France, where she placed 6th and 9th respectively.

On 10 April 2017, Asada declared on her blog that she had retired from competition.^[1]

Skating technique

For jump abbreviations, see figure skating jumps.

Asada performs a one-handed Biellmann spin at the 2006 Skate America practice.

Asada is known for her flexibility in spins and spirals. During her first two years on the international scene, Asada became known for her signature move, the cross-grab Biellmann position. She is also noted for performing the one-handed Biellmann spin in competition. She has received +2.60 grade of execution for her spiral sequence.^[75] Asada is also known for the complexity of her footwork sequence and has earned +2.00 grade of execution.^[76][77]

Asada landed her first 3A at the age of 12, and she became the first lady to perform a triple-triple-triple combination in national competition – she completed a 3F-3Lo-3T combination.^[78] At the age of 14, Asada landed a 3A in her free skating at the 2004–05 Junior Grand Prix Final, held in December 2004 in Helsinki, Finland, becoming the first junior girl to do one in an international event. She has since been known for her 3A jumps.^[79]

Starting with the 2007–08 season, criteria for judging jump take-off and landing technique were made more rigorous, and Asada began to be penalized for under-rotating her jumps and for change-of-edge errors on her Lutz jump, colloquially called a "flutz."^[80]

Asada did not include salchow jumps in her junior and senior career programs until 2008. She had stated previously that the triple salchow was the first triple jump she had ever landed and that she did not have a problem landing it cleanly, but she was not comfortable using the jump in competition because it is one of her least favorite jumps.^[25] Asada added the 3S to her free skating at the 2008 NHK Trophy^[81] and 2008–09 Grand Prix Final.^[82]

Normally, Asada uses a 3Lo as her second jump in a combination, especially after the 3F. However, she added the toe loop to her free skating as the second jump of her first triple-triple combination during the 2004–05 season,^[83] a 3F-3T. In the 2006–07 season she used the 2A-3T, while in the 2007–08 season she performed the 3F-3T again.

In the 2008–09 season, she executed the 3A-2T combination in international competition, first getting full credit for it at the 2008–09 Grand Prix Final.^[82] At that same competition, Asada became the first female skater to land two 3A in the same program.^[39] She is also the only woman to have landed three 3A jumps in the same competition at an ISU competition. She has a Guinness World Record for the most triple axels performed by a female skater in competition.^[46]

After finishing second in 2010 Winter Olympics, Asada decided on the drastic measure of reworking her jumps.^[84] The goal was a more fluid jump by adding speed to the approach run, which would increase the height of jumps and the speed of spins. Asada also corrected her habit of moving her shoulders up and down before making a jump. The reworking process set her back for two seasons. Asada found that her jumping began to suffer and she was making mistakes on all her jumps.^[85] During the 2012–13 season, her performance improved and she went on a winning streak. Her component score, which had mostly remained in the 7 range, edged above 8. By the 2013–14 season, Asada said, "every single one of my skating techniques had been changed."^[86] In 2014 Winter Olympics Ladies Free Skating event, Asada executed all six triple jumps.

Asada has been known to practice and land quadruple jumps in training. She credits training alongside Takahiko Kozuka for improving her spins. The number of rotations she is able to achieve with one kick increased from 30 to 104.^[51]

Public life and endorsements

Asada is very popular in Japan and is credited with increasing the popularity of figure skating in Japan. She began to draw attention while still on the junior circuit and is a household name in Japan, known by the affectionate nickname "Mao-chan".^[92] During the 2014 Winter Olympics, Asada became the most discussed and mentioned athlete of the Olympics on the social networking website Twitter, ahead of Yuna Kim, ice hockey player T. J. Oshie, and snowboarder Shaun White.^[93]

Asada headlines her own exhibition show called "The Ice", which began from the summer of 2008, with her sister Mai Asada.^[94] Her skating music was compiled on two albums by EMI Music Japan: Mai & Mao Asada Skating Music and Mai & Mao Asada Skating Music 2008–09.^{[citation needed]} The Asada sisters have also been named as goodwill ambassadors to Canada, and have traveled to Canada to serve in that role.^[25]

In 2011, Asada launched her own kimono brand named MaoMao.^[95][96] In January 2012, Asada cancelled the release of a book on her skating career; she stated, "The way the book was advertised was different from what I had in mind."^[97]

Asada has appeared in many variety television shows as well as in commercials. She and her dog Aero, named after Aero chocolates, have been featured in chocolate commercials in Japan.^[25] Asada's sponsors include Coca Cola, Itoham Foods, Kao, Lotte, Nestlé, Oji Paper Company, Olympus Corporation, Omron, Sato Pharmaceutical, United Airlines, and Weider.^[98][99] Other sponsors include Weider In Jelly, Nippon Life Insurance Company, and Weavajapan.^{[citation needed]} On 25 December 2013, Japan Airlines unveiled a new Boeing 777–300 (JA8942) with a special Mao Asada livery to promote Japan's participation in the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.^[100]

During the 2010 Winter Olympics, a popular Vancouver Japanese street food vendor, Japadog, named a hot dog after Asada called the Mao Dog. Similarly, a local sushi store created a sushi roll and named it the Mao Roll after Asada.^[101] After Asada's silver medal win, Japanese dollmaker Kyugetsu created a Mao Asada hina doll in celebration of her efforts.^[102] In December 2013, chrysanthemum farmers in the Ryukyu Islands named a new crop of chrysanthemums "Mao Orange" after the colour of Asada's short program dress from the 2012–13 season.^[103]

On 8 April 2014, Asada's exhibition named "Smile" opened at Takashimaya department store in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district. This drew more than 10,000 visitors on its first day, outperforming every other event opening at the establishment for the past 10 years.^[104] In just nine days, it hit more than 100,000 visitors, the shortest period to reach the milestone in Takashimaya's history.^[105] The exhibition includes a collection of 30 costumes that were worn by Asada and a display of medals she has won over the years, among them the silver she scooped up at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.

On 5 July 2014, Asada made her debut as a reporter for the long-running travel program "Sekai Fushigi Hakken!" by TBS. For this documentary, she traveled to Austria, Slovakia and Hungary for eight days to find the origin of figure skating.^[106] In March 2015, Asada made her debut as DJ host for her weekly radio show program "Mao Asada's Nippon Smile". This program was sponsored by Sumitomo Life Insurance Ltd. Co. and aired in TBS radio from March 2015 to June 2015.^[107]

She is also a big fan of Japanese pop star Ayumi Hamasaki, and was seen congratulating her on her 10th Anniversary.
