Stall/Spins at 2 feet agl!!

All right. I definately agree with you that you use pitch for airspeed and power for altitude if you're talking about flight in the region of reverse command, behind the power curve, whatever. I guess I missed that part of your post before(the whole region of reverse command crap), so sorry for bringing up this whole stupid argument. I think we probably agree on the whole topic.
 
Back to the original question. What speed are we taught to fly in crosswind situations? 1.2 x Vso and add that to your final approach speed. in a 172 this is about 70-72 knots IAS. In a cross controlled situation at this speed, unless you are very very uncoordinated you are unlikely to spin.

You can be as uncoordinated as you want and you won't spin. You just can't stall the aircraft and be uncoordinated at the time the stall occurs- that's when you'll spin.
