Left backward inside twizzle

LBI to LBI: 1 rotation on one foot, travelling, one curl and no cusp.

Not checked yet. The mechanics on this page are a first draft by a non-expert, and no coach has seen them yet. Read them as a starting point and check them with a coach. Corrections are very welcome.

Backwards on an inside edge, one rotation, exiting on the edge it began on. The weakest of the four entries, because a back inside edge has the least lean to sit on and the least to check against. That is a reason to practise it.

It exposes the free hip more than the other three. Let it trail and the rotation runs out before the turn is finished, and the last quarter arrives as a scrape with no curl.
