 Figure skating: what is a salchow?
The Salchow is often seen in pairs skating as a throw jump, where the man throws his partner into the air creating more lift.
It is possible to perform the Salchow as the third jump in a three jump combination by executing triple toeloop-half loop-triple Salchow.
The Salchow rotates an even number of times: once for a single, twice for a double, three times for a triple and four times for a quadruple or "quad." The quad Salchow was first performed in Junior level competition (rather than in Senior level) by the, then seventeen year old, Goebel.

 The Layperson's Guide to Lutzes & Loops
I've saved the description of the Salchow for last because often I can only identify a Salchow by ruling out all of the other jumps first--if it wasn't an Axel, toe-pick jump or cross-the-leg loop, then it must be a Salchow.
A Salchow is an edge jump like the loop, but sometimes the take-off is so subtle--particularly with Brian Boitano and Todd Eldridge--that the skater is suddenly airborne and you're left wondering how they got there.
Salchows are commonly done in a pairs throw.

In a typical single axel, a skater initiates the jump facing forward, launches the jump from the left forward outside edge, completes 1y rotations in the air, and lands traveling backward on the right backward outside edge.
In a salchow, named after Swedish skater Ulrich Salchow, a skater begins while traveling backwards, takes off from the back inside edge, turns in the air, and lands on the back outside edge of the other skate.
The lutz, invented by Austrian skater Alois Lutz, is similar to the salchow in rotation and landing, but the skater travels backwards on an outside edge (rather than an inside edge), uses the toe of the opposite foot to help launch the jump, and rotates clockwise in the air.
