Wear a chute.

*Always* wear a chute, not only when spinning! Aerobatics, even
spinning, is pretty safe compared with cross country flying.

In Europe, almost all glider pilots always wear chutes. Not because it's
mandatory (it's not, in most countries even not for aerobatics), but
because, well, just because we do. Over the years, those chutes have
saved many lives. Almost all bail outs were done after midairs, I'm not
aware of one caused by an unrecoverable spin.
