lotusland said:Layover Camel - variation, can be either back or forward camel, skater rotates torso upward during the spin, in the most extreme cases, both the face and chest are facing the ceiling (re: Josee Choinard)
Inverted Camel - exclusively a backward spin, more dramatic position than the layover, the inverted backward camel requires the skater to fully open the hips allowing free foot to rotate such that the toe points up, variation is to bend the elevated leg rather than keeping it outstretched (re: Josee Choinard and Nicole Bobek)
I think that's probably my #1 least favorite thing about COP -- you can't end with a scratch spin! My coach always had us end with a scratch spin (and as a result, all of her students have incredibly good ones), and it seems odd to end my program now by contorting into a thousand positions.Joesitz said:I like closing a performance with a terrific scratch spin. It tells it all about spinning for me.

This looks funny. Is it a spin?
