Ok my pregnancy brain and lack of energy is kicking in. When do medium senior and international open coed go? Trying to see if I can get a power nap in.
 
I know we’re trying to be more athletic or whatever but like... bows are literally a symbol of cheerleading. Why would we move away from them?

Like I support us taking the industry in a cleaner more athletic direction but it’s ridiculous we’re doing it by removing bows but there are teams like OO, LL, TGLC, etc competing in costumes dancers would balk at. I just don’t get it.

BRING. BACK. THE. BOW.
 
Worlds will be really interesting if TGLC and Steel both hit. TGLC raw with 1.75 in deductions was 99.03 and Steel with 0 deductions was 99.20.

I mentioned somewhere else that the bow creates a nice silhouette that makes the body look more balanced. These unis are form fitting. People’s heads are small compared to the rest of them. If you put hair back and take away the bow, they look a little pinheaded. The bow makes everything more symmetrical.

—Love, a person with a smallish head on a 5’8 body.

I agree completely. Plus it’s like, the symbol of cheerleading. It’d be like football taking away eye black, or gymnastics doing away with scrunchies, or ballet taking away tutus. It just doesn’t make sense to me.

Like I’m fine with them discouraging posh ponies, but I don’t get the bow hate.
