See Fig. 261, the back after the turn. Thecontinuous stroke and swing makeCounters much easier to skate to placeas eights (Fig. 59) than rockers (). Observe that a Counter like this261—ROF Counter is composed of a forced curve plus asimple one 5 a rocker of a simple curve. after the turn 99 plus a forced curve,the forced curve, see pCounter-Q Eightsand Reverse QEights (4lobes).Two rockers andtwo counters maybe expeditiouslyskated in field oneach foot, f andb, alternately.
