This move could easily be one of the Complicado climaxes of any social dance. It made it into my repertoire right

There are many moves on YouTube called Setenta y Uno Complicado, if we also search for 71 Complicado and Setenta con Gancho Complicado, but with one exception, I don’t think, I have seen the same move twice.

Corona Doble is just a small extension of the original Setenta con Corona. It is still too easy to be considered a Complicado. We are at intermediate level. For a long time Corona Doble has been a well-defined figure with many videos on YouTube. In 2018 Mexican Salsaficion published a new alterative Corona Doble. I don’t like when new figures
