Salchow + Euler + Salchow

Salchow (LBI, off the edge) through an Euler into a Salchow (LBI, off the edge), 3 rotations in all.

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

The edges, drawn: the Salchow's takeoff, the edge between each jump and the next, and the 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 Salchow lands RBO and the Euler takes off from it, turns once and lands LBI on the other foot, where the 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.

Derived

The 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 Salchow takes off from that same edge with no pick and lands RBO. 3 rotations in all, written 1S+1Eu+1S on a protocol sheet.

Made of the Salchow, the Euler and the 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.
