Time for another double Double feature! Today's puzzle is a Double Marble on a deltoidal trihexagonal grid! Unfortunately it's no longer Sunday, so all you strange shape enjoyers will have to be a little more patient for that one. Instead, today we revisit LIX Loop!

Rules: Shade some empty cells so that no two shaded cells are orthogonally adjacent and draw a non-intersecting loop through the centres of all the remaining empty cells. L, I and X refer to cells containing a turn, cells containing a straight loop segment and shaded cells, respectively. Clues represent the majority of these cell types in a straight line in the indicated direction. If multiple cell types are tied for the majority, all of them are listed in the clue. (Note that clues can see through, but ignore other clues.)
