This transition can be executed in multiple ways. Everyone should choose the technique that matches their skill level!
- With hand grip: The base and flyer hold hands, and the flyer uses this support to assist the movement.
- With leg grip: The base holds the flyer’s leg, stabilizing the transition.
- Without hands: The base tilts the flyer in a way that allows them to sit into a one-legged throne, hook one leg, and then the other.
- With a pop: The base gives the flyer a slight boost so they can lift off and land in the throne position.
