Left backward inside double twizzle

LBI to LBI: 2 rotations on one foot, travelling, 2 curls and no cusp.

Two rotations backwards on an inside edge, exiting where it began. The hardest of the twelve, for the same reason the single is the hardest of its four: there is least to lean on and least to check against, and now it has to last twice as long.

If it fails it usually fails between the curls, where the edge flattens and the second rotation skids round. The tracing is unambiguous about it: a flat is a straight line, and a straight line in the middle of a twizzle is the whole fault.
