The Rubicon is a transition between two poses, going there and back in the opposite direction. This creates a loop — in other words, a washing machine.
Half a turn from the throne, the flyer faces the base, then ascends into a reverse star. From there, she crosses her extended leg down, the base enters with the opposite leg, then the flyer turns onto the other leg as well and locks the throne. Jacob Brown
This version has a foot2foot entry on the ascent to the throne-star. Jacob Brown
This rubicon version has an extra step included, making the movements easier. If you have difficulty with Jacob Brown’s version, you should try this version first.
In this version, the transition from the reverse star to the reverse throne is a little different than in Jacob Brown’s video. After the first step, the flyer starts the other leg backwards and connects with the base’s leg.
