outside edge: the paler lineinside edge: the darker line
RFI → RBO → LFO. A skater who rotates the other way traces LFI: the same element, generated from this one.

A three turn, then straight onto the other foot. The three turn takes you from forwards to backwards on one blade; the mohawk takes you back to forwards on the other, and the lobe carries on through both.

It is worth practising as one thing because the mohawk has to be ready before the three turn is finished. The free foot cannot be found afterwards: a step is instantaneous, and if the foot is not there the cluster becomes a stumble with a good turn in front of it.

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, three turn to RBO, then mohawk 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.
