Setenta con Exhíbela
Seventy, then show her off. The classic hammerlock resolving straight into an exhíbela turn.
What This Move Is
Setenta con Exhíbela = "seventy with show-her-off." A standard Setenta whose resolution flows directly into an exhíbela: rather than settling back to open, the lead sends the follow into a presented right turn — showing her off — as the combo's finish. The 70 hammerlock module is unchanged; the exhíbela is the showcase tagged onto the exit.
Key Points
- Lead: Run the Setenta clean and on time, then on the unravel redirect the follow into the exhíbela turn instead of resolving flat — present her, don't just release.
- Follow: Travel through the hammerlock and unravel as usual, then take the offered right turn as a showcase, finishing presented to the lead.
- Timing: Setenta phrasing throughout (prep on 7, hammerlock 1-2-3, unravel 5-6-7), with the exhíbela turn carried into the resolution 8.
- Common mistake: Letting the Setenta resolve flat before starting the turn, so the exhíbela becomes a separate afterthought instead of the combo's finish.
Style Notes
A Setenta-family combo — the 70 spine with a showcase resolution, a sibling of Setenta con Guancho. Social and friendly: a clean way to put a flourish on the casino classic.
