    Hey y’all. It’s been a minute.

    All-Star 2016-2017 Teams

    That's just a Summit rule. Not a rule for any other competition... Edit - I suppose it is a possibility that it will be true for other competitions, but it isn't an official USASF rule that has been released yet.

    All-Star Questioning A Coach's Decisions?

    I hope it goes well!

    All-Star Questioning A Coach's Decisions?

    This one is easy. Talk to the tumbling director in private. Ask him. Something like: I'm not as experienced as you are in teaching tumbling and would love your input as to how you choose when to advance kids in their skills. When do you know they're ready? Then listen to his response. He may...

    All-Star Tryout Season

    We're AF too, and you might be able to find a gym that allows late adds to teams. Feel free to shoot me a message with where you think you might be going (or wait until you know for sure) - I will try to help you find a new gym home. If you happen to end up anywhere near DC, I can guarantee...

    All-Star Cheer Alliance 16 Competition

    Their bid event listing was in some random corner of the CL website. I searched around and found it... Only after we won a paid bid at a small-ish comp in Mississippi. I didn't realize they were giving out paid bids until that point.

    Cheer Fusion Or Maryland Twisters-sterling,va

    The gyms aren't anywhere near each other (Sterling for MT and Fredericksburg for CF), which is a huge factor in NOVA, as drive time can be substantial in the area. Cheer Fusion is a great program that focuses on technique and execution in addition to proper progression. It has been very...

    All-Star Discuss Your Usasf Struggles Here

    There are lots of good IEPs that are USASF sanctioned and must follow USASF standards; they just don't have the "benefit" of being under a large EP umbrella and the marketing juggernaut that goes with that. If you're in the southeast part of the country, Deep South and Victory Athletics Spirit...

    All-Star Tryout Season

    Start of season 5 for my CP. Hard to believe... I remember when I first wrote to @SharkDad requesting access to the parent board because I was now a cheer parent when CP was a tiny and he was like, what do you mean, now a cheer parent, did you suddenly acquire a child??? (I was a coach long...

    All-Star Worlds 2016 Day 3 Updates (monday)

    Worlds scoresheet for international divisions only requires a majority of athletes to perform a toss to get into the highest range for tosses. This is different from the regular score sheet used for the rest of the year. That being said, the highest range is from 2.0-5.0 for difficulty, so not...

    Oh the montage. Good. I missed it the first 3,427 times it was shown.

    All-Star Worlds 2016 Day 3 Updates (monday)

    The only 1 point deductions are for athlete bobbles... An under rotated basket would be 2 points.

    All-Star Worlds 2016 Day 3 Updates (monday)

    ATHLETE BOBBLES 1pt deduction for each occurrence EXAMPLES: - Hands down in tumbling - Knees down in tumbling or jumps - Incomplete tumbling twist(s) * The landing position of the athlete’s feet will be used to determine completion

    All-Star Worlds 2016 Day 3 Updates (monday)

    I just posted this, but I'll post again - look at 1:35 in the video in this thread, boy just to left of center. His feet end up sideways, meaning an incomplete twist. I'd guess a 1 point deduction (AB) for incomplete twist.

    All-Star Worlds 2016 Day 3 Updates (monday)

    Look at 1:35 in this video, boy just to left of center. Incomplete twist based on where his feet land?

    Level 1 Stunt Clarification

    To clarify, stunts are either legal or illegal. Some things are always illegal (for example, BHS in level 1), while other things might be legal or illegal, depending on how they are performed. What you describe is one way of possibly making the skill legal. There are many ways that this skill...

    All-Star What Rules Does The Champions League Follow?

    It is a USASF sanctioned event, so yes, they should follow all USASF rules.

    Bhs On Trampoline To Floor

    If her coach is telling her over and over about her hand placement, I would argue that having her practice the hand placement *incorrectly* at home on her trampoline isn't helping, but rather reinforcing by repetition the incorrect technique that her coach is trying to fix. Additionally, the...
