Either one is acceptable to me, as is one roll for all the marbles, provided that it's laid out for me as such when I make the attempt.1. Roll for a DC of X to land solidly on the wyvern's back. If you fail, you can roll for a DC Y to grab onto something and just hang on. If you fail the second check, you fall into the lava and are gone.
2. Roll for a DC of X to land solidly on the wyvern's back. If you fail by no more than Y you grab onto something and just hang on. If you fail by more than Y, you fall into the lava and are gone.
If the first example is not acceptable, is the second option acceptable?
What I personally find unacceptable is making the attempt, failing, and then being told, "Well, go ahead one more time, and this one really counts!"
