Waltz jump + Euler + Salchow
Waltz jump (LFO, off the edge) through an Euler into a Salchow (LBI, off the edge), 2.5 rotations in all.

The waltz jump is often the first jump a skater puts in front of another. Its half turn lands on the same back outside edge as almost every jump here, an edge the skater has already practised.
The waltz jump 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 waltz jump takes off LFO 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. 2.5 rotations in all. The waltz jump has no ISU code.
Made of the waltz jump, 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 RFO and lands on LBO: the same combination, mirrored.
