Cynique

Definition:

The CYNIQUE is a series of reversing LAZY SUSAN rotations (360° entered from the BACKFLIP position). The trick may be entered either nose-up (as in LAZY SUSAN) or horizontally (as in ROLLING SUSAN). The reversals should be crisp, with no discernible pause between rotations. The trick is exited nose-up.

Key elements:

Minimum three rotations (e.g., right, left, right). Flat rotation. Constant speed. 5 rotations for EXCELLENT score.

Judges View:

No pauses, flat rotations, same speed all the time. On the spot.

Common Errors:

Stopping the kite before pulling the next Lazy Susan, no nose up exit.
