  3. The flyer bends the knees and leans back to sit on the base's feet. The base finds the flyer's hands and takes a Hand-to-hand grip .
  4. The base keeps the knees bent while the flyer wraps the feet around the front of the base's ankles, hooking around the base's calves.
  5. Once stable, release the hand grip and the base extends the knees.
  6. To exit, the base brings the knees to the chest and reconnects at the flyer's hands, the flyer unwraps the legs to stand, and the base gives a gentle push to help the flyer step down.
