GLOSSARY

This combination links a heel-side Dolphin Turn into a nollie 720, using the nose-loaded rebound from the Dolphin rhythm to pop into two full rotations. It is an advanced guratori-style combination.

Context and distinction

The combination is described from a named lesson; each part also has its own entry.

HOW TO DO IT

Dolphin → Nollie 720

Saechika describes a heel-side Dolphin entry feeding nose loading, release, board draw and landing, with 360/540/720 progression. The source label does not specify FS orBS, and entry edge does not prove direction.

Preparation and setting

A verified Dolphin, reliable nollie-based spins and the teacher's lower-rotation progression under instruction.

Available preparation and unresolved execution

  1. Establish the verified heel-side Dolphin entry.
  2. Organize nose loading from its release.
  3. Coordinate nose release and board draw.
  4. Complete the already established lower-rotation version first.
  5. Progress toward the named 720 only after lower versions have controlled landings.
  6. Absorb and finish with a deliberate ride-away.

Learning and practice

Follow the source's staged angles rather than starting at 720. Exact departure direction and Dolphin contact timing need review before a complete standalone lesson.

Errors and corrections

Extra twist without release reduces clearance. Skipping lower rotations hides landing weaknesses. Inferring FS from heel departure invents a field.

Observable checks

Named progression and written components are retained; unresolved direction and entry details prevent a full reproduction claim.

teaching summary — coaching review required

S9: establish a controlled Dolphin rhythm, organize the nose-loaded release from the heel-side movement and coordinate the airborne rotation with board draw-in and landing control. Errors: unstable Dolphin entry; weak nollie release; focusing on height or 720 before coordinating the transition. The teacher discusses working through 360 and 540 before 720 — an attributed progression.
