No, not even if he’s an advanced flyer already, he’d still have both of his hands tied to his broom. Maybe when he’s really really good at it will he try that ‘trick’.

Moving on now, he got his school issued broom, and placed it on his right side. Ethan opened and closed his right hand, ready to catch the broom once he gives the command. Breathing in and out first, he calmed himself and basically convinced himself that he can actually get through the first step.

“Up!” Professor Tanner said to say the word in a firm way, like commanding a soldier to get up. But instead of his broom zooming up to his hand, the thing stood beside him, as if waiting for another barked order. “Not that kind of up, Boomie.” Yes. He actually named his broom that. Ethan pushed the broom back, and it fell like a dead tree.

Holding his hand over the broom, he gave the command once more. “Up!” and the broom was now in his hand.
