Notes
Underturning/Turning/Overturning
The terms over/underturning refer to Steps 4-6 of Natural Spin Turn.
Depending on the desired alignment, these can be rotated more or less.
The definitions for each are as follows:
Underturned: Anything ≤ 5/8 of a Turn.
Regular Turn: 5/8 < Regular Turn < 7/8
Overturned: Anything ≥ 7/8 of a Turn.
The Checked Spin Turn
Is an amalgamation of the Natural Spin Turn and the Reverse Pivot.
IDTA Note: The IDTA Syllabus divides the Natural Spin Turn into two separate figures: Natural Spin Turn and Underturned Natural Spin Turn.
For the sake of clarity, we list them together.
