Description
Executed by pressing Light Punch and Light Kick, (the throw command) and pushing backwards near an opponent. Chun-Li first performs a handstand on top of her opponent's shoulders. As she twists her body, she swings behind her opponent and delivers a kick to the back of their head, sending them tumbling to the other side.
Tactics
The main purpose of this move is to create space. After the throw, Chun-Li can zone out her opponent with fireballs. It is also an effective way to put her opponent back in the corner. Against characters such as Birdie, Zangief, or Abigail, it is important for Chun-Li to utilize this move to keep her distance from her opponent. It does slightly more damage than her forward throw.

Trivia
- Cammy performs a very similar move in Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie, where she assassinates the British Minister of Justice, Albert Sellers. However, when doing a handstand above Sellers' head, she breaks his neck before collapsing his body.
