What are the best add-on ab routines 10-15 min?

I would like to know what everyone uses for an additional ab routine. I have so many Cathe's, Beach Body, and other workouts that I'm certain I am under-utilizing videos that are sitting on my shelf that will fit the bill perfectly. I like to switch up different add-on ab routines from different instructors to really get in there and work the abs from different angles. But, I've noticed that I keep using the same workouts all the time. Here's some of them I use often:

AB ripper 200 (from P90)
Ab ripper X (from P90X)
Great Body Abs (Tony Horton great body guaranteed disk)
Cathe PUB - ab section
Cathe 4DS - ab section
Ab Attack 10 - Insanity Max 30

I don't want anything longer than 15 minutes....and actually prefer 10 minutes or less. Going thru all my workouts to weed out the good ab add-on's seems like a daunting task. Hope you all can help a girl out with this one.

I like the ab routines from ChaLEAN Extreme, I think I have 4 of them. 2 are about 10 mins, and the other 2 are a bit longer at around 15 minutes. I often add them on at the end of my workout.

I've been doing more Cathe and like the bonus core workouts from Ripped with HiiT. The core routine from BB Combat is good but a bit longer at 20 minutes. I also like to do core routines from Blogilates and Jessica Smith on YouTube, there are tons of 5, 10 and 15 minutes routines that are easy to add on to a workout or just do whenever to get some extra ab work.

I like more plank work, twists, and pilates-type ab movements, I try to limit crunches and more traditional ab work because I don't think it's that effective and buzz around it hurting the back concerns me a bit.

I love ab work!
In no particular order :

The ab routine from Crunch Fat Burning Yoga
All 3 sections of YBB Abdominals & Core Strength, 1st section is my favorite overall
10MS Yoga Yoga for Abs, it's the only reason I keep this one around
The Firm Core Solutions, it's the only standing routine I'll do
The 10 minute ab work on Men's Health The Belly Off Workout Strength Training Routine
If I have the time, because it's actually 20 minutes, Kari Anderson's Curl.
Eric Motz has an ab work yoga routine on youtube that gave me such doms....

For short ab work, I like:
Circuit Burn abs ~7 mins
Mega Abs from Perfect Legs, Glutes, and Abs ~5 minutes
Abs from 30 Minutes to Fitness- Weights ~ 10 minutes
Ab section from Squeeze Stronger ~10 minutes

I'm liking Beast Abs from the Body Beast set. It's just over 10 minutes and just a little bit less difficult than Ab Ripper X.

Medicine Ball Abs from Cathe's Ab Circuits video is one of my favorite ab workouts. I think it clocks in around 8 to 11 min. Can't remember exactly.

I also like Insanity Abs workouts. For traditional abs routine, I love Cathe Muscle Endurance.

I love the core work from Barre3. For $4.99 you can buy their app which has plenty of 10 min core routines, in addition to full body or lower body routines. Great value.
