At the spin quantum Hall transition (class C) the Hall conductance for spin is quantized while charge is not conserved. Corrections to scaling are found to be small near the transition that connects two neighboring plateau states. Therefore, it lends itself as a natural testbed for analytical predictions. We here present a numerical study of the wavefunction statistics. Our results: (i) In a recent theoretical investigation [1], Bondensan et al. argue in favor of exact parabolicity of multifractal spectra near integer quantum Hall transitions. Thus motivated we investigate the class C spectrum and find that it is far from parabolic. (ii) Analytical arguments [2,3] predict a symmetry of the multifractal spectrum that we can confirm with a very high accuracy.
