The lady faces south stepped away in front of and slightly on the right of the man, who faces north.

The man brings the right hands across to his left shoulder (as if his right arm were in a sling) and releases hold, so that his right palm faces his shoulder and with the lady's right hand flat on top with no grip so that the lead cannot be confused with a “Classic” Yo-yo.
