So she whizzed about as easily as walking and then saw poor Kurumi.... doing something. She spun her broom around and gently lowered beside her. While the two floated, not that very far off the ground mind you, Selina asked, "Kurumi... need any help?"
Kurumi looked to the side to see Selina flying gracefully next to her. "Uh...yeah..." she mumbled as she began to fumble around for better balance. It wasn't easy stearing her broom from the brush end and flying backwards. "Could I, um, hold on to your shoulder for a second. I am going to try and turn myself around..." Kurumi looked down at the ground. Not too far off it now, still flying at at most 10 feet so she would probably just break a bone if she fell funny.

Not waiting for Selina to respond, Kurumi reached her left arm out and rested it on the red-head's shoulder while keeping her right one on the brush. How was she going to managed this? Stand on her broom!? That did not sound like a good idea, but it seemed like her best option at the moment.

Every so slowly, Kurumi lifted her left leg and put it on the handle. She really just wanted to curl up into a ball right now right there on her broom. Okay, step one done. Leg is on the broom. Now to push off...

Kurumi was now standing on her broom, flying backwards, and with her right leg dangling in the air. Her and Selina probably looked like some sort of strange circus act. "Okay, I am going to try and turn around now..."

With a jump turn perhaps?
