Camel Spin Tips:
-Practice at the wall – right hip on left hip, nostrils level, get the back down, bellybutton parallel to ice, point the toe outwards
-Stay down on the knee until you hit the toe pick on the 3 turn during the entrance
-Back spiral exercise
-Pull head slightly back for more speed, but don’t let the leg drop
-Common mistakes - free leg drifts to the side, catching your toe pick while spinning, leg too high/low, dropping your arm/shoulder into the entrance
