Personally, I think spin training is a great thing but in Canada, although spin training including full blooded spins is standard and a checkflight with an instructor at the beginning of every season including spins is mandatory too (I've never seen a club which doesn't require it and the Soaring Association Of Canada insurance requires it as well) we really don't have that great a safety record overall. I spin my 15b at least twice a year in addition to the two spins and two incipients I have to do on the checkflight plus the spins I do with students and I actually really enjoyed doing spins in the L-13's we used to have. Does that mean I'm immune from the possibility of having a low level stall-spin? I sure hope so but I have my doubts. Having the necessity of maintaining appropriate speed in the pattern and performing well banked turns to base and final drilled into me from very early on has likely served me well though.
