Superman dismount – moves list
Hi there, I was wondering if you could help me to figure out (recalling your experience and your practice) all the kind of dismounts from classic Superman.
I would like to make a list of them, starting from simpler to more difficult moves/poses/dismounts so that I can practice and learn myself before teaching my students (it will take a lot of time since my girls are mostly Beginner 2 level but I would like to have the perfect technique on all alternatives).
Thank you everybody for your precious help! <3

That's an interesting thread ! I'm always in search for a new way of getting out of Superman.
The only ones I know are the Aerial Shoulder Mount and the superman fall (superman into tuck or scorpio).

Thank you Cats! Let's see what other polegirls say about that issue. <3

I found out an easier way to come out of the move. Let's see if it's correct and acceptable.
easier:
– go back to hook and V out
harder:
– aerial shoulder mount
– superman fall (superman into tuck or scorpio) -
Not necessarily dismounts but here are some other things I do following a Superman:
Hip Hold
Scorpio
Dove
Bees Knees
Aerial Shoulder Mount
Hood Ornament
Figurehead

I can only think of Superman drop to floor splits 🙂

Just saw this video while checking out glitterheels.com. It may be too advanced for your students, but hopefully you can get something from it.

You can go into a cradle 🙂 that’s a really fun transition
-
Amy, do tell! How would one make that transition? I'd love to do a Superman – Cradle – Extended Butterfly combo! 🙂
-
I have no idea how this pose is called, the one at the minute 2.56. It's not as painful or unconfortable as I thought. Give it a try!

@RikkiL With that combo you could go from Ex Butt to Flatline Scorpio and back to Superman!
-
Elbow grip Ayesha. Took me a while to get it smooth and speedy. From there there are so many combos 🙂

Has anyone already mentioned coming down into shooting star (Felix calls it a star fish)…? I want to try out some of these suggestions since it has always been kinda awkward for me to come out of a superman. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

If anyone is inspired to post a video of ways to get out of Superman, I would definitely watch and learn : ) Right now, I can only share how to get STUCK on the pole after getting into Superman.

Videos would be nice. I have tried the fall over and over again. I even had a workshop where Karol herself spotted me and showed me. I have a mental block about it. I just kinda slide out. Lol!!!
