Double Salchow + Euler + double Salchow

Double Salchow (LBI, off the edge) through an Euler into a double Salchow (LBI, off the edge), 5 rotations in all.

Also called 2S+1Eu+2S. Other names.

The edges, drawn: the double Salchow's takeoff, the edge between each jump and the next, and the double Salchow's landing. Each edge in between is one edge: one jump lands on it and the next leaves from it. The body is not drawn yet, because the Euler is not drawn on its own page either.

The Salchow swings off a back inside edge and lands on the back outside edge like almost every jump here. Landing it with the knee bent and the free leg held back leaves the speed and the balance for the next jump.

The double Salchow lands RBO and the Euler takes off from it, turns once and lands LBI on the other foot, where the double Salchow takes off. Nothing comes between them, and the Euler counts only here, between two jumps, as a single.

The Salchow here has no three turn in front of it. The Euler has already put the skater on the back inside edge, so the free leg swings through and the jump goes up from the landing.

At double the margin is small: the first jump has to leave enough speed to carry through the Euler into two full turns, and a last jump that comes up short is marked as under-rotated.

Derived

The double Salchow takes off LBI off the edge and lands RBO; the Euler takes off from that same edge with no pick and lands LBI; the double Salchow takes off from that same edge with no pick and lands RBO. 5 rotations in all, written 2S+1Eu+2S on a protocol sheet.

Made of the double Salchow, the Euler and the double Salchow. Nothing here is stored on the page beyond the three jumps and the count.

A skater who rotates clockwise takes off RBI and lands on LBO: the same combination, mirrored.
