Ins: Scorpio, pike hip hold, flatline scorpio. Outs: Use arms to pull back close to pole, dove, superman drop. Thats all I can remember for now but I know there are more :)
additional ins: shoulder mount, side v additional outs: aerial shoulder mount, cradle invert or only cradle v, felix figurehead to aerial invert or to pole sit
David Owen showed me my new favorite out this weekend: superman to Teddy. So cute.
ooh poledanceromance, please elaborate! i'm intrigued!
I personally like to get into it from either the Gemini or a tuck (maybe the same as a side V?). I prefer to get out of it with either the Dove/Aerial Shoulder Mount, if I want to continue up the pole, or a Hip Hold, if I want to travel back down the pole. :)
Thanks for all the suggestions guys. Will have to try out a few you guys mentioned.
Ellen- you just pull up and get the shoulder over like you were going into a hood ornament or setting up to go into a chopper from superman. Once the pit grip is secure, you pull the legs up and open in a V to the Teddy. I'd never thought of it until I saw David do it.
Ooo RikkiL - how do you come out into a Hip Hold?? Is it similar to the drop into a Scorpio?
Caitlin, it is similar to dropping into the Scorpio. You put your bottom hand back on the pole to push with so you can direct your body, then tuck your head. It's a little easier to do than to explain! ;)
Awwwww Thank Veener's; It's the "superman" month in Studio 409!
Superman to Teddy sounds awesome! I can't wait to try it :)
There are so many tricks you can do to get in and out of the superman. I don't think I've seen this one before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c05iIVAaNDc at 3.00
i tried a new variation to get out today, too. i saw it in a youtube video, but i can´t remember in which... you grab the pole with both hand behind you very close to your bottom with your thumbs pointing down (thumbs not around the pole - similiar to true grip) the you keep your upper body straight while you slowly lower your legs into a vertical position in front of the pole. hope you understand what i mean... i´ll try to find the video mayve later ^^
I remember Boomloulou doing a video quite a few years back (and I found it) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltLB7cqTbmE Becca Burcher also has an awesome way to get into superman that I remeber Bertysbooboo posting a video about: http://www.youtube.com/user/bertysbooboo#p/u/34/rNtRHbw80Yc
Becca's is a little different. It is at about 2:15 in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeTVKP3pmgU
Don't forget that you can transition into it from an Allegra. Also, I have a fun way to go (or rather fall in this case) into Superman on spinny if you have OK leg flexibility. I'm doing it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9N9eMXHzCLA 🌸
