What's your go-to move/spin

You know you have one. 👽 That move you always do when in doubt. 😕 You do it so much that your body does it without your mind even thinking about it. 🤔 When you're dancing you have to tell yourself not to do because you're actually tired of seeing yourself do it. LOL 😂 After watching my last two videos I realized that mine is defintely the chair spin. I can't stop doing it. Everyother second I'm chair spinning. I can't stop! It's like I'm addicted!I keep telling myself "Don't you dare do another chair spin, do something else." But I always end up doing it again LOL. What's yours?

I love me my reverse grab. And any combo that a reverse grab can be thrown into. It's weird cause I was super scared to try this since my active imagination had conjoured up all the horrible ends that might occur should I do it wrong or slip and go flying across the room. But then I did it and loved it! I really should pick a different go-to spin, maybe the craddle (which is fab too) or something with a smaller radius since I have to plan my take off or kick the sofa, the wall, the bookcase, etc. 😂 oh well.

Bah, it's the backhook. And when I swore off of backhooks, it was side spins. And when I swore off of side spins, it was a random free form spin. ... but it always comes back to backhook.

A reverse grab...I do it so much its annoying!! I don't know if I have a video of my not doing that move. 😂 😂

Front hook. Took me at least three weeks to master it, and now it won't leave me alone...

What a fun thread! For me it's back hook and cradle spin. I think they're in every vid I have! It's what I go to when I'm stuck in my head thinking what the f'ing hell am I going to go next!! 😂

oh im def a RG girl. butterfly is my invert fall back.. ➡️ i made some new vids last night and it's so true. hadn't realized it, but when looked back i was like "damn girl! chill with those RG's already!" 🤐 when i ever get the handspring /cartwheel that will be my new obsession. 💣

Haha - mine is the reverse grab, too. I think because I was so excited to have it that I have to keep making sure I can do it. I haven't made a video yet, but I am sure that it would be chock full of them!

My go-to spin is either fireman or snowflake (pinwheel) into fireman. I also have to mentally forbid myself to do them otherwise even I get bored watching me! Lol! My go-to invert is a scorpio and I am soooo sick of it haha! But now I've got into the habit of quickly switching out of into a side V and then pushing into a butterfly. Which was good for a while but now THAT is my go-to combo. Argh! Why must we all get mind blanks so often haha!

Ooooh my go-to spin is definately Front Hook or Fireman!! I do both without thinking!!! My go-to invert is Forearm Grip Aysha. And because I recently got it, I find myself doing the cartwheel mount an awful lot!!! Fun thread Sissy!!! 😀

What a great question! I've actually been noticing lately that I tend towards a big graceful ballerina spin when I need some space to fill. I've been trying to come up with other "standbys" so that I have some more variety. Maybe I'll check out some of YOUR standby moves to add to mine! 😂

For the spins, I love the chair flip-flop! I feel like I'm on that ride at the amusement park when you're on the chairs that fly out in a circle! 😀 For inverting, it's now the reverse crucifix. Possibly soon the gemini if my side toughens up.
