Body flow Series 31: Pole Mermaid Trick

Body flow Series 31: Pole Mermaid Trick

You can find the trick at 0:29 of this video. This is one of my favorite intermediate trick in pole. It is very easy to execute and it looks really cute especially in a spinning pole. I lost my spinning mometum at the end of the trick, I wanted to retake it but I was too tired to do so. Extended pole tricks usually slows down the spinning pole. Leaning in and bringing the body close keeps the spin going. There are also techniques like a quick "whipping" motion that speeds up the spin. Sometimes, the entry or mount on the pole at the beginning play an imporant role to keep my momentum. If I know I will be doing a alot of extended moves, I like to start with a fast spin. Smooth transitions in the pole can also help a lot in keeping the pole spinning. Having too much "hiccups" in execution or extra motion slows down the pole by decreasing its momentum.
