Right forward outside 2½ twizzle

RFO to RBI: 2½ rotations on one foot, travelling, 2 curls and no cusp.

Two and a half rotations from a forward outside entry: two curls in the tracing and then a half that has to be produced out of whatever rotation is left. The count decides which way you are facing at the end, and everything about the exit follows from that.

Rotation is cheapest at the beginning and this asks for the awkward part last. A skater with enough for a double and no more finishes the second curl, runs out, and steps the last half round. That is a double twizzle with a turn stuck on the back of it, and it looks exactly like one.
