  Pink Puma at APFA — she does the move at 0:50 on spin mode…

  I really want to get comfortable in this move – but I'd like to know what it's called! I looked all over Poledancedictionary and couldn't find it..

  Any ideas?

  Thanks!

  It looks about the same as the Oona split- she goes into it after she switches her hands a bit, actually.
  I don't know if that kind of pole mount has a name, though.

  I think it's called the "U-bend" or "U-turn". There are several variations to this move that probably all have different names … maybe someone else knows more 🙂

  She's lifting off and then goes into a hummingbird. U-bend is when you bring the outside leg over to join the foot already on the pole –

  I never know what the 'official' term for that is, I just call it side mount for my own personal reference! Would like to know what it is known as though!

  Pantera does this all the time.  I know there was a discusstion about this a while back…I will try to find it.

   

  BTW….here is Pantera: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=holxnaB7LQw&feature=fvsr

   

  She does it about 3:15 but it is totally worth watching this whole 4 minutes of badassery.
