When I first attended Ceroc in 2002 they taught the Catapult with the "hook" grip and still do in the few venues I still attend. I was taught to teach it with the hook grip lead too (Non CTA). The hand hold behind the back during the lean can be the same or with the hands with thumbs down if the lady is particularly well armed in the fingernail department. I always check them out before doing this move!
My teaching has been more LeJive/Leroc biased to be honest. But I have seen it taught this way at Blitz too.
Noticed you taught it without the hook grip the other week Gus, but I adapt to the venue/teacher.
