[[File:Spin Pound (Quick Ground Pound)- Advanced Movement Tutorial - SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY|thumb|330x330px]]
A spinpound, also sometimes written as spin pound and known to some players as a hipdrop, is a move that is performed by pressing the crouch button during a spin jump. Unlike a regular [[ground pound]], a spinpound does not stall in midair; Mario will immediately accelerate toward the ground. To make Mario spin, the joystick must be rotated in two full circles; however, spins can be buffered, meaning the two rotations can be performed during another animation so that Mario is spinning immediately upon returning to his normal state.

Aside from movement, most ledge clip setups feature spinpounds at some points, though the setups are usually very unreliable.

A silent spinpound is when a spinpound does not generate the usual sound accompanied by a spinpound. Many players will encounter a silent spinpound at some point whilst playing the game and may be confused as to what caused it. According to current knowledge, a silent spinpound occurs when the player releases zl/zr just before the spinpound is completed.
