But then again, in Sonic games, Sonic's friends quickly learn spin jumps in their debute. Sonic Heroes being an example of how well known the spin jump is.

And the spin jump is like, 3-5 somersaults in one controlled jump, without throwing up and retaining your sense of balance and direction even in fights, crisis or uneven footing. So to learn the spin jump can't be something to easily be picked up. Unless it's more easier for mobians.
