Right backward outside double twizzle

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

Two rotations backwards on an outside edge, out on the same edge. This is the one asked for at the top of the Skills syllabus, and in ice dance it is done alongside a partner where the two sets of curls are compared with each other.

Nothing about it is new after a single; all of it is harder. The rotation has to be metered so that the second turn is as strong as the first, and the check at the end has to arrive on an edge that has been running for twice as long.
