The bases are ready, their knees are bent, and they're preparing to sponge. The back spot has her hands on the flyers waist. The Flyer's hands are on the bases' shoulders.


The flyer hops up, putting her feet right above the bases hands. While doing so, the flyer pushes on the shoulders of the bases to lift herself. The backspot lifts the flyer upwards, so the flyer's feet are easier for the bases to grab.


(This is another pictures of step 2 so you can see better what everyone is doing)


The bases lift their hands to catch the feet of the flyer. The whole stunt sponges, and then they push back up, this time to go all the way up.


The flyer starts to tighten her body and keep her balance as the bases push her up. The backspot continues lifting, adding control to the stunt.


The flyer's legs are tightened still, and the back spot releases her hold on the flyer's waist. The backspot then moves her hands down to the ankles of the flyer.


The bases continue moving their hands up past their eyes. The flyer stays tight still.


The bases then settle their hands back down to their chests.


The bases move closer together, or the flyer pulls them closer with her legs. The stunt is now not moving.
