Or the BU. Yes.

So she passed her hip twice CW and three times CCW. To try to explain further... assume hands at the waist are at 5 on a clock (6 is the hip). Rotate the clock arms CW to 7, then CCW to 12, then CW to 7, then CCW (making a full rotation) to 5 for the release.
Until her hands separate, nothing is happening. The pitch starts when the hands separate. What you describe here is legal.
