With one or two exceptions, I rarely lead double time spins. I will lead free spins (ie not holding onto the lady's hand) and give her the option. And I am more likely to lead double spins to slower music. The exceptions are two ladies I know who love spinning, and asked me to lead more spins.
I have seen one lady who seems to enjoy spinning as fast as she can at every opportunity. The problem is that she can't do it without travelling. It is good practice dancing with her, as you are constantly thinking of ways of
stopping her spinning so she doesn't keep bouncing into people.
Continuous single time spins I do lead, and virtually every lady can follow, including most beginners. So I have a feeling the NZ assessment means double time spins.

Looks like I'm joining Steve as a beginner!
