crossed-silk straddle invert glissade:

split fabrics and hang between them; invert in straddle, bringing legs outside the fabrics and then tuck feet between the silks in front; flex feet and turn feet inward at ankles while straightening legs and pressing hips forward, to wrap legs in fabrics above and support weight (keep pressure on fabrics at hips with hands). with hands, bring the fabrics at waist behind the back, crossing (trade fabrics in hands behind back), and back around to the front. then unwrap feet from fabrics above and straddle again.

alternate entry: from crossed-silk straddle invert, kick off wraps from legs. (this is easiest if starting with regular footlocks; more awkward with the alternate double en dedans wrap footlocks, and even more tedious with double or triple en dedans wraps.)

from either entry, take both fabrics together in one hand in front of bellybutton (as shown in photo). allow the fabric to slide through the hand at any speed preferred; you will descend at the same rate. note that this is exactly the same as the crossed silk straddle invert slack drop, except that you slide down at a steady rate instead of measuring out a bight (loop) of fabric and suddenly dropping the length of the loop.
