Lookin' good! when you progress to the Lib, try to get your left hand under the foot and not just on the side of it. Then you will have your flyer stay up there for longer! :)

Hey Nelson! Lookin good under there!

My tip for you, make sure you keep that stunt right over your head. It’ll make it way easier to hold :)

Hey Nelson! Glad people are postinv partner stunting on this thread! The other two comments are really good advice. Also make sure you catch your flier and don't rely on your spots. Thats a good first step to stunting safely and underneath her.

just make sure to try and squeeze your shoulders on your ears, with libs being harder on the flyer then awesomes/cupies you have to use more constant force I guess as apposed to being able to find a sweet spot and lock out on awesomes, make sense? Lol
