Hi, Mike.

The most common mistake that I see guys do is snaproll into the spin and not stall the airplane before the spin. Make sure the airplane stalls. Also make sure that the immelman before the spin is big enough to give you enough altitude. I've seen guys rush the spin or even do a one turn spin instead of two because they were not high enough. Make sure you draw a line after the spin as well. I've never met anyone at a contest that wasn't willing to help. Have fun and good luck!!!!!!!!!
