You need 7 people
(2 fliers and 5 bases).
Start with 2
Toss shoulders
facing one another and have a toe pitch in the middle. Have the 2 shoulder
stands dip down to reach the top flier who is on the floor in the middle
with her right foot in the toe pitchers hands. The top flier will
reach up for the base fliers outside hand and grab a wrist to wrist grip.
The top bases will place their inside hand on the top fliers tricep.
There is also a tosser in the back grabbing a hold of the top fliers
waist. On count the flier dips, the bottom bases begin to stand, the toe
pitcher resists the top flier as she stands up, the tosser flicks the top
flier, and the base fliers pull up on the flier by using her arms as
leverage. At this time the top flier will ride and continue to push
through her arms/shoulders. As the toe pitcher initiates the top
flier's right leg by guiding it to the left, the top flier initiates her
split to the left in this example. The base fliers are still pulling
straight up and locking their arms. Once the top flier's legs are
reachable, the base fliers will grab the flier's legs and place them on
their shoulders (In this
situation the right base will grab the calf of the flier and the left base
will grab the flier's shin and place her legs on their shoulders).
Squeeze the flier's legs and hands for the finish.
To dismount the
top flier (who continues to push through her arms) will initiate the roll
off by tucking her chin to her chest, pushing off of her arms, and lifting
up with her backside. The base fliers will assist the top fliers
legs together as they come up and around. The top flier will bring her
legs and feet together, then pike and catch 2 bases for the cradle.
TIP:
try the rolloff on the ground, before going up in the air.
