I have spun our club's Junior and have never seen those different cycles. However, I weigh about 190 Lbs plus parachute. *I'm sure the spin characteristics are very different at different weights. You are quite right - I should have said that the oscillation is at lighter weights / after CoGs. *I thought the Junior spun aggressively, but I found it easy to exit the spin immediately after multiple (I don't recall how many - maybe 3 or 4) rotations. *I love spinning gliders! Do you have Polish blood, by any chance? Ian
