  We revisit the recently proposed mechanism of Geometric Inflation. On general
grounds, we show that obtaining the right amount of inflation demands an
exceedingly large initial energy density. We introduce a scalar field and study
the combined action of both mechanisms. Besides fixing the aforementioned
issue, a cascading process occurs whose last step seems undistinguishable from
ordinary large field inflation. Strikingly, the scalar field remains
approximately constant while Geometric Inflation rules the dynamics. This
ultimately leads to the possibility of reducing the initial value of the scalar
field and its excursion. We discuss the main features of this hybrid scenario.
