knee hang-knee hang with a single knee.
single
toe hang-toe hang with a single foot (not a single
toe!).
skinning
the cat-from hanging beating up and going straight
through so hanging with arms pulled up behind you. Can
then let go with one hand and turn back to usual hang.
sleeping beauty-doubles move: base sits on bar, flyer
begins hanging by hands from right side of the bar,
both facing out to audience. Flyer hooks right knee
on base's left flexed foot, then places neck on base's
right flexed foot. Flyer straightens both legs, and
pushes hips up to make sure their body is straight,
and both style. This is a nice trick because it gives
the image that the flyer is lying across base's feet.
spotter-person
at the safety lines.
star-x-shaped
position formed from standing. Lift up and push ropes
out with feet above velvets, holding ropes as high as
possible with hands.
straddle-hanging
under bar, hips up, legs wide, hands close together,
crotch close to hands.
suicide-falling
face toward the net (just turning before landing back
toward the net).
swinging
trapeze bar-a special trapeze bar used for swinging
trapeze acts, there are usually small cylindrical or
spherical weights at each end of the bar.
