not sure I can call this a "flip change".

Flip change implies fingers leading the front side of the ball,
and a wrist "flip" action upward at release.

to me, this is more of a "backhand change",
and a very good one, at that.

Eh maybe. What I find interesting is that it looks like she tucks her pinky on the pitch.

I'm bumping this because there are some really great videos of spins that I want to show my daughter before it's lost in the archives and all the links start not working like on the other old threads. Thanks again for the time put into this :)

As the coverage and the cameras get better, there will be more spins to check out. Sad to say, most movement I've found is downward and generally involves a change of some sort. Littlejohn's curve is very good. It's the only one I found with good video of the spin. There are few good spinning rises and alot of bullet spun pitches called everything, dependant on the location.

Awesome bump--one of my favorites! I linked this thread in the Model Pitcher's sticky and added it to the link in my signature line if that helps.
