Twizzle

A twizzle is "a multirotational, one-foot turn that moves across the ice" in the sport of figure skating. First performed by David Grant in 1990 the International Skating Union (ISU) defines a twizzle as "a traveling turn on one foot with one or more rotations which is quickly rotated with a continuous (uninterrupted) action". It is most often performed in ice dance, although single skaters and pair skaters also perform the element. Twizzles have been called "the quads of ice dance" because like quadruple jumps in other disciplines, twizzles are risky and technically demanding.

Examples of use of twizzle
1. In the ice dance, Denkova and Staviski overtook Canadians Marie–France Dubreuil and Patrice Lauzon, who were leading after Friday‘s original dance, when Dubreuil lost her balance while performing a tricky twizzle sequence Saturday.
