Re: Over-Turned Turning Lock

Something to be added to the Turning Lock following the Over Turned Spin Turn. It can be deceiving in its name using the word Lock Step. Our normal Lock Step for want of a better word is loose. The Turning Lock is much deeper. If it is done with a very ordinary locking action your base will be too wide. The RF will be too wide causing problems getting into Promenade. The turn on the Lock can be like on a saucer and not a manhole cover. As you come out on the count of three it is still a side step, foot pointing diagnal to centre, body facing LOD.
