One Foot-One Rotation Back Spin

Yes, on the second attempt I ever did, with no more that two minutes of instruction (1 minute from one coach, 1 minute from another), on my second attempt, I got a one foot back spin. Okay, only one rotation. But I was shocked, I tell you. Shocked!

My first reaction is....

A back spin! A Back spin! OMG!!!!

But then I thought, "Hey, it took me TWO YEARS of timidity and struggle to do that on a forward spin. "

"Doing a one foot back spin on the second try..hmmm...."

And it was much, much better than this!

 

And I haven't touched it for months. Hmm, gotta start again now that I'm up to FIVE rotation forward 2 foot spins.
