Steps of the transition:
First, you change the hand grip — the base holds the flyer’s hand from underneath to push them up. The flyer keeps their arm straight and strong the whole time.
As the base lifts the flyer, the flyer bends their legs and lets the base’s feet slide from their hips to the back of their thighs.
Then the flyer lifts their hips and wraps their legs around the base’s legs. The base can help by bending their knees.
It’s a good idea to watch the video closely.
