Musical_Spinner Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 So someone recently told me that at a camp he went to he learned peggy spins by grabbing on the flats instead of when the flag is straight up and down. Anyone else do it this way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else do it this way? are you sure that they aren't confusing speed spins with Peggy spins? and yes before i answered this thread i had to go find something in my office to spin to test flats vs. up/downs.

cccmommy Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I thought in Peggy spins it was: down, left, up, right for the grabs. Am I confusing this with something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHSmirage Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I've seen/taught both styles..... Hamburger A : Bottom, beg (flat), over (straight up and down), beg(flat) ,over (straight up and down), beg, over..... Hamburger B : Bottom, beg(flat), over (straight up and down), beg, under (straight up and down), beg, over...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick Stack Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Yes, you can grab it at the flat, stright up and down every time, or even all angles. Flat is a very even spin. Straight up and down emphasizes effort changes, because you have to use more effort to get the flag around, then less to turn it. When you grab it with you left hand alternating over and under, I've heard it called something else. All different styles, most of them vary by schools of thought and region of the country.

mpsanchez Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I had always assumed a Peggy spin was a double-spin but grabbing over instead of under during the odd counts from 3 on? How I was originally taught to move into position for a 1-1/2 toss with wind-up... Or, did I miss the memo? Hamburger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
