4 выкидывать кренделя
прост.do some fancy footwork ( when dancing); execute fancy twists and turnsНа лету подхватил знакомый мотив Топтало. И, взмахнув руками, словно птица, понёсся по кругу, выкидывая невероятные кренделя, ухарски шлёпая себя по голенищам, по коленям, по затылку, по лбу, оглушительно ладонью по подошве и, наконец, по раскрытому рту. (Н. Островский, Как закалялась сталь) — Toptalo caught up the familiar tune and swinging his arms like some great bird he swept into the ring, executing the most incredible twists and turns, and slapping himself smartly on the thighs, knees, head, forehead, the shoe soles, and finally on the mouth in time with the music.
