Normal appproaches i think there is little chance of stall spinning no matter what bank angle is used.

The danger is when you are stressed by bad weather, limited vis. low level circuit with flap down trying to make continous turn to final on high wing aircraft.
Suprising how quickly speed can bleed off with limited external reference.

This is more of a danger for the experienced pilot who has got used to flying by feel.

Students have it drilled into them to watch airspeed.
