Double Lutz + Euler + double flip

Double Lutz (LBO, off the pick) through an Euler into a double flip (LBI, off the pick), 5 rotations in all.

Also called 2Lz+1Eu+2F. Other names.

The edges, drawn: the double Lutz's takeoff, the edge between each jump and the next, and the double flip's landing. Each edge in between is one edge: one jump lands on it and the next leaves from it. The body is not drawn yet, because the Euler is not drawn on its own page either.

The Lutz is entered on a long back outside edge curving against its rotation, and lands on a back outside edge curving the normal way. The second jump takes off from that landing.

The double Lutz lands RBO and the Euler takes off from it, turns once and lands LBI on the other foot, where the double flip takes off. Nothing comes between them, and the Euler counts only here, between two jumps, as a single.

The flip here has no turn in front of it. The Euler lands on its takeoff edge, and the free foot’s toe goes in behind straight away.

At double the margin is small: the first jump has to leave enough speed to carry through the Euler into two full turns, and a last jump that comes up short is marked as under-rotated.

Derived

The double Lutz takes off LBO off the pick and lands RBO; the Euler takes off from that same edge with no pick and lands LBI; the double flip takes off from that same edge off the pick and lands RBO. 5 rotations in all, written 2Lz+1Eu+2F on a protocol sheet.

Made of the double Lutz, the Euler and the double flip. Nothing here is stored on the page beyond the three jumps and the count.

A skater who rotates clockwise takes off RBO and lands on LBO: the same combination, mirrored.
