The Ina Bauer was one of Karen Magnussens' "signature" moves. She did a fantastic one.
Yes, it requires a great amount of flexibility and control. Sashas' is exquisite due to her amazing flexibility.
I could never quite master it. I did a great outside spread eagle though.
* A variation of the spread eagle variant where one knee is deeply bent and the other leg stretched behind the body.
Typically done with an arched back.
