  My Nats?? Well I can't really help you as I can't do Dove, but I guess if you're spinning a bit, why not make it a half turn and then it looks planned?

  Are you pulling up or in with the top arm? 

  If you are pulling up (attemping to pull your head to the pole) then it will likely force your legs down.  Be sure to bend your elbow in, between your back and the pole, to get yourself close enough to grab with the other hand.

  Hope that helps!

  Engage more with your core, try to keep your hips square with the pole behind you, to keep your body from rotating. You may need to grip  a bit more than you are between the thighs too.
