The base initiates the transition by bending his supporting leg, creating a gentle tip that sends the flyer into a controlled backward rotation. As she moves, he catches her foot and establishes a secure foot-to-hand grip.
He then guides her foot forward while continuing the rotation with his supporting foot until they arrive in the vertical position. To stabilize the pose, the base places his elbow close to his body on the floor.
The flyer remains upright throughout the movement, while the base controls the balance and the timing of the transition.
