I'm trying to fold the praying mantis by Michael G. LaFosse from the book "Advanced origami - an atrtist's guide to performances in paper"

I can't figure out how to get from step 26 to step 27. Can anybody help?

Am I alowed to post a scanned picture of the diagram?

Thanks in advance

Lol, I found it. You just have to pull the the upper triangle outward and over itself by reaching inside the paper (where the arrows as indicated in the diagram come from) valley folding it down to the bottom.

Hope that makes sense for anybody who gets stuck there as well.
