Choctaw turn
A choctaw turn is a turn in figure skating that involves both a change of foot and a change of edge and lobe.Choctaws are the two-foot equivalents of rockers and counters, in the same way that mohawk turns are the two-foot equivalents of three turns and brackets.The most familiar choctaw seen in free skating is the step from a back inside edge to a forward outside edge that is used as the entrance to forward spins.Otherwise choctaws are most commonly used as elements of step sequences.They stated this was done to "improve equity, diversity and inclusion in the sport."
