KLINGENSMITH, J.

    Appellant Gregory Stickney appeals his sentence for violating his
probation. Stickney raises several issues on appeal, but we find merit in
only two. First, the trial court erred by failing to file written findings
pursuant to section 948.06(8)(e)1., Florida Statutes (2017), to support its
determination that Appellant posed a danger to the community as a violent
felony offender of special concern (“VFOSC”). Second, the trial court erred
by failing to enter an order listing the special conditions of probation that
Appellant violated. We reverse and remand as to those issues. We affirm
all other issues raised on appeal without comment.

    “The legality of a trial court’s sentencing is reviewed de novo.” Whittaker
v. State, 223 So. 3d 270, 272 (Fla. 4th DCA 2017).

    On the first issue, both parties agree that the trial court was required
to enter a written order with specific findings to establish that Appellant is
a danger to the community. See § 948.06(8)(e)1., Fla. Stat.; Barber v.
State, 207 So. 3d 379, 384 (Fla. 5th DCA 2016). The point of contention
is whether the trial court must hold a new hearing.

   In Arnone v. State, 204 So. 3d 556 (Fla. 4th DCA 2016), this court held:

      [W]here a court orally pronounces a reason, consistent with
      one or more of the factors listed under section 948.06(8)(e)1,
      for its finding that the defendant, as a violent felony offender
      of special concern, poses a danger to the community, but fails
      to provide written reasons for its finding, the proper remedy is
      to affirm the revocation of the defendant’s probation, but
      remand for entry of a written order conforming to the court’s
      oral pronouncement. Martin v. State, 87 So. 3d 813, 813 (Fla.
      2d DCA 2012); Bell v. State, 150 So. 3d 1214, 1214 (Fla. 5th
      DCA 2014).

Id. at 557.

   Here, the trial court orally pronounced reasons consistent with one or
more factors under section 948.06(8)(e)1. Thus, while a written order
conforming to the court’s oral pronouncement is required, a new
sentencing hearing is unnecessary.

    As to the second issue, Florida law also requires a written order
specifying what probation conditions were violated. See Musto v. State,
174 So. 3d 568, 569-70 (Fla. 4th DCA 2015). “When ‘the order of
revocation fails to specify the specific violations found, it must be reversed
for that reason alone.’” Wright v. State, 958 So. 2d 594, 595 (Fla. 4th DCA
2007) (quoting Larangera v. State, 686 So. 2d 697, 698 (Fla. 4th DCA
1996)). But if the basis of the revocation can be verified from the hearing
transcript and other court documents, the matter should be remanded for
entry of an order listing the specific conditions violated. See Robinson v.
State, 74 So. 3d 570, 572 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011). Here, it is clear from the
record which conditions of probation were violated; the trial court merely
failed to memorialize them in the revocation order.

   Therefore, we affirm Appellant’s designation as a VFOSC, but remand
for the trial court to enter a proper written order conforming to his oral
pronouncement without a new sentencing hearing. See § 948.06(8)(e)1.,
Fla. Stat.; Arnone, 204 So. 3d at 557. We also remand for entry of a written
order of revocation of probation specifying the conditions appellant was
found to have violated. See Musto, 174 So. 3d at 569-70; Robinson, 74 So.
3d at 572; Wright, 958 So. 2d at 595.
