Start with an
Elevator, but you
will all face to your right so that the audience can see the scorpion.
Flier –
From
elevator wait for the base’s dip. Ride up to the top of the base’s
extension by squeezing your abs, placing your
weight in inside of the right foot, and keep your feet together. When
stable pull your scorpion position right away. This is done by using
your back muscles to kick you left leg straight you. Grab the top
part of you foot right away with both hands. This can be very
difficult, so beginners may want to grab their foot from the side with
their left hand. Once you have you left foot, pull up so that you
foot is pointing up.
TIP:
You may let go of your foot with your left hand and point it to the
front to give the stunt an added effect.
TIP:
Practice this stunt on the ground by having another person help by
lifting your leg.
Back spot-Start
with the flier’s ankles with your corresponding hands. As the flier
goes up. Work your left hand to assist with the flier’s right ankle
(so you have 2 hands on her ankle). Then Squeeze up for the finish.
Right base-
Start with your elevator grip. On count extend the flier up and
slightly to the center. Make sure the entire time that you are
squeezing her foot for support.
TIP:
make sure the flier is slightly on the ball of her foot. You do not
want her on her heel OR all the way on her toes.
Left base-
Start with your elevator grip. On count guide the flier up and
slightly toward the center. Before you hit the top of the stunt,
quickly place your right hand under the flier’s foot and your left
hand on top of your flier’s foot. Squeeze for support to finish.
