    Tabletop and Marion Amber for me.  I think my biggest problem is that I've never had instruction for either move.  The closest thing to it has been reading the MA threads here!

    I'm sure there are some others, but these are the ones that always seem to elude me.

    **By "correct way" I mean the way the tutorial is for the flip.  No disrespect meant to any other SM grips!**  🙂

    Hookedonpole is spot on.

    However, I've known several girls who were more comfortable shoulder mounting with the shoulder side hand being the high one.  There are so many different grips for that move that I don't think it really matters.  BUT for the flip it definitely makes a difference to do it the correct way!

    If your right shoulder is on the pole then your legs will go over that same side.

    I love the Veena grip for the SM flip!  I like it for a closed shoulder split and I also use it when the pole is a little more slippery than I'm comfortable using cup grip on.  You can do basically any shoulder mount move with it!

    April 17, 2012 at 8:08 am in reply to: Shoulder Mount Grips! Which one for what move…?

    No, they are different grips.  The Veena grip is also referred to as Safe or Flip grip – cup grip with hand on the same side as the shoulder, forward grip with the other hand.
    Someone described Princess grip earlier as the shoulder side hand extended up the pole and the other hand with a cup grip.

    I love this move but it's not on my radar just yet!  I need to work on a few building blocks first. 😉  Anyway, here's the link to the move on Pole Dance Dictionary…it might help to be able to watch her do it repeatedly with no distracting background/music/etc.  Good luck!

    Amy, do tell!  How would one make that transition?  I'd love to do a Superman – Cradle – Extended Butterfly combo! 🙂

    Wow!  Those are some crazy ninja moves!  https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_batman.gif

    Is the first one a Rubber Double Elbow? http://www.triagedesign.co.uk/wikipole/images/8/89/Rubberdoubleelbow.jpg

    And I don't think I've ever seen the second one…guess I'd refer to it as an elbow grip Broken Pencil.
