mirror

inside edge: the darker line

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

A rocker into a counter from a backward entry. The two turns rotate opposite ways and both change the circle, so the skater ends up back on the lobe they began on while having travelled somewhere else entirely.

Watch the middle edge. There is a genuine edge between the turns, brief but real, and if it is a flat then what happened was one long rotation with two scrapes in it.

Derived

LBI is three letters (foot, direction, edge): left foot, backwards, inside edge. Every edge in the guide is written that way, so RBI is a right foot travelling backwards on an inside edge.

LBI, rocker to LFI, then counter to LBI. 2 turns on one foot, and the skater finishes on the edge they started on.

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 RBI. Same element, mirrored.

Build on

Left backward inside rockerLBI to LFI: half a turn into the circle, holding the edge and leaving on a new one.
Left forward inside counterLFI to LBI: half a turn against the circle, holding the edge and leaving on a new one.
