Best Spins

[OniBan]

Thank you this thread for introducing Lucinda Ruh to me - what a gorgeous spinner! (also what an infectious positive energy she gave out in her performances!)

But the Queen of Spins is for me Lucinda Ruh - nowadays no one have this kind of fluidity, grace, flexibility and speed mixed in such flawless way. Still re-watching her videos and getting amazed by her layback in particular looking from up perspective - it seems like a flower

The ridiculously over the top centering is seriously something that I don't think anyone had ever achieved especially when considering the level of spins she did. I'm not talking CoP levels BTW

Has anyone mentioned Ashley Cain's spins? That girl can make a knife boot cut a serious tight circle on the ole frozen H2O.

I've called this spin (to myself) a 'diamond spin' due to position she takes at the end (may be weird for some, I know)

Joshua Farris does this spin as well. My hips hurt from watching him do it lol.

My back also hurts whenever I see skaters do Beillmann.
