Or just plain heat.  In the first movie Ranma was surrounded by hot
water and it was coming up from the ground from all sides so he didn't
need to do the spiral.  That was how he could do the HSH.  The second
movie as it is noted, the attack the two sisters used was a spiralling
heat attack.  Personally, I don't think he even needed Akane and could
just have fired off the HSH.
