outside edge: the paler lineinside edge: the darker line

RFI → RBI → LFO. A skater who rotates the other way traces LFI: the same element, generated from this one.

A rocker, then a step onto the other foot with the edge changing as well. The rocker reverses the lobe by turning on the blade; the choctaw reverses it again by stepping across. Two changes of circle by two entirely different mechanisms, one after the other.

Worth doing precisely because the mechanisms differ. The rocker’s change of lobe happens at a cusp you can see; the choctaw’s happens at a gap in the tracing where one blade stops and another starts.

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, rocker to RBI, then choctaw to LFO. 2 turns on two feet, and the skater finishes on LFO.

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.

Build on

Right forward inside rockerRFI to RBI: half a turn into the circle, holding the edge and leaving on a new one.
Right backward inside choctawRBI to LFO: a step onto the other foot, changing edge and reversing onto a new one. No cusp.
