There are several possible transitions between these two poses. In this example, the transition includes an intermediate table-turn position. The base catches the flyer, who is folded in straddle, rotates them, and places them back into bat pose. This movement requires strong arms from the base, while the flyer holds the pose passively.
This is part of a longer flow, so it’s worth watching the entire sequence.
