Big Red Trumpet Spinmasters

The Spinmaster is a very important position in the BRB Trumpet Section. It is the Spinmaster's duty to call the spins while we are marching in parade formation. The Spinmaster should be loud, since all the Trumpets have to hear them over the percussion. They should be in command: they are the only member of the BRB who regularly breaks rank while parading. Of course, the rest of the Trumpets will do so on their command...

The current spins that we use are:

• Bionic Spin (single or double, for an exponent of 2 beats)
• Disco Trumpet
• Super Hybridized SP3 Orbital Spin
• The Inverse-Rodney on Wonderbread (or SourDough, whichever is available)
• Hop and Scream
• Tori Ball March (Named after Tori Ball '05)
• The Big Time Walk (Named after Big Time '16)
• The Trumpet-By
• Trumpet Laser
• Starfish

A list of retired spins:

• Ripple Spin (Individual, Row, Column, Diagonal)
• Section Spin (every 2 or 4 beats)
• The Funky Shane (Named after Shane Detweiler '97)
• The Reflecting Ripple (16 beats)
• The Sunshine Spin (Named after Chris "Sunshine" Zuidema '08)
• The Frack Dance (Named after Frack '08)
