Description

Base 

  • Keep your arms straight above your shoulders.
  • Point your hands slightly up (the angle depends on the preference of base and flyer).
  • Keep strong wrists.
  • Sink your shoulders into the floor.

Flyer 

  • Keep open hands (try not to squeeze).
  • Divide the weight equally over the palm of the hand (it helps to think of the weight going to the top of the palm).

Spotter 

  • Stand on the side.
  • Keep your hands underneath the armpit of the flyer.
