From Pike Throne to Front Bird (with pop)

142

If we want to enter bird from throne with a pop (a throw using hand contact), the movement starts from this extended leg pike throne position — even if the starting pose was classic throne or straddle throne. In that case, the flyer either extends their legs or unlocks to arrive in THIS extended leg pike throne.

n the throne with outstretched legs, the flyer stretches her hands forward, base lowers her until he reaches the flyer’s hands. Both hands extended. Base bends his legs, gains momentum, and throws one on the flyer. The flyer stretches her legs back and comes back to the base foot in bird pose. The base softens the return by bending the legs at the moment of arrival.

Transitions From Throne to Bird

For beginners, the simplest version is recommended: stepping from classic throne to bird. This transition often appears in beginner flows, and it’s worth practicing it until it feels stable before moving on to more advanced variations.

There are two ways to transition from Straddle throne to Bird: one is a simple step-over (recommended for beginners), and the other is with a pop. In the pop version, the flyer first unfolds their legs into what is essentially a pike throne — and the movement begins from there.
