What types of beginner/intermediate/advanced type moves do you rarely ever see performed? I'm preparing for a showcase in October, and I want to throw in a couple of tricks that don't get a lot of love. :) I'm thinking more of good ol' classics rather than tricks that are new and shiny (or extreme).

What are your favorite go-to moves? I can suggest unusual variations if you let me know😊
Thanks so much, lovely! Some of my favorites (in no particular order) are: Gemini Bomb/pike hip hold Butterfly Extended Butterfly Iguana (just got very comfortable with lowering into it - my mount is still hidious, though) Butt Superman Genevieve (side sit) Hello boys (wrist sit) Genie Golddigger drop Tammy or anything from an inverted crucifix Any laybacks (russian, x-ankle, x-knee) Side climbs Side V from gemini Shoulder mount (from the ground) Caterpillar Scorpio to gemini switches - either the drop or the static rotation Whew! I know that's a lot but hopefully that gives you an idea of some of the moves I'm comfy with. I might want to avoid certain moves or have back-ups just in case because pole students are permitted to play on the poles between the shows. Last year we were all getting our greasy pizza fingers and Halloween makeup gook all over everything. They're cleaned before every performance, but some of that stuff lingers! XD Not sure if it helps, but I'm looking to do some simple doubles moves, and the theme is going to be an 80s slasher movie cheese-fest. We'll be doing some spin and some static combos. :)
