There are two common ways to transition from Throne to High Foot-to-Hand. In the first variation, the flyer rises using her own strength, without any assistance from the base. This requires good control and some extra muscle power from the flyer.
The second option uses a pop. The base provides a small boost with his legs, creating momentum that helps the flyer rise onto the base’s extended arms and arrive in High Foot-to-Hand.
This is where the first variation belongs—the one where the flyer rises using her own strength, without a pop. I haven’t found a suitable video yet, so if you know one, please send the link to acrodemy.eu@gmail.com.
The pop variation: the flyer uses the momentum to rise into High Foot-to-Hand.
