The most spins I've ever done is five or six - but it doesn't happen very often. The most I can do on a normal night is three or four, but there aren't many partners who can lead me into multiple spins so that it all works well. My breakthrough came when I had a private lesson on spinning with Amir. I had just about given up the idea of managing a double spin before that lesson.

I find it works best when I try to pull up through the top of my head and pull in my stomach. It's important not to lift up the spare foot, but keep it close to the floor. There's also a trick with driving down the arms which gives the spins some extra wellie* (* technical term, from the latin) and speeds everything up. I tend to find with the extra wellie thing, that I get a bit scared with how fast I can go and wimp out before I run out of momentum.
