A counter into a three turn, forwards. The counter fights the curve and changes the circle; the three turn then goes with the new curve and stays on it. So the cluster is hard then unremarkable, which is its own trap: the three turn arrives while you are still recovering from the counter and tends to be thrown away.
Skate the second turn as deliberately as the first. It is the one that leaves you with an edge to travel on.
Derived
RFI is three letters (foot, direction, edge): right foot, forwards, inside edge. Every edge in the guide is written that way, so RBI is a right foot travelling backwards on an inside edge.
RFI, counter to RBI, then three turn to RFO. 2 turns on one foot, and the skater finishes on RFO.
Nothing above is stored on this page. The cluster records its entry edge and the order of its turns; every edge in between is chained out of the same rule that draws a single turn.
A skater who rotates the other way does the same thing from LFI. Same element, mirrored.
