TOP PLAYER
POSITION
Your partner is on their back. Start with both of your arms under both of their knees, hands open.
OBJECTIVE
Get past their legs and connect your hands around their hips or shoulders.
CONSTRAINTS
Keep at least one arm under at least one knee the whole time. Lose a leg and you get back under it. Use any other part of your body to help, and play the space from hip to hip. Any alignment counts: side, rear, or front facing, double under, over-under, or single under.
WIN CONDITION
Connect your hands around your partner's hips or shoulders while you are past their legs. If you flip them over and connect past the legs, it still counts.
BOTTOM PLAYER
POSITION
On your back with the top player's arms under both of your knees.
OBJECTIVE
Get your feet back in front, sit up and away, or tie the top player up with your legs before they connect past your legs.
CONSTRAINTS
Four ways to win; whichever happens first counts. Roles change every time the bottom player wins.
WIN CONDITION
Both feet to the inside of the top player's legs, both feet to the inside of their biceps, sit up and disconnect, or make a closed leg connection around their shoulders or around their head and arm.
