woah. i've got like a bucket list of them... but my major no no's are any stunt with a lib, even tick tocks, where the flyers has the foot out in front of her like its on a box and she's tying her shoe, and then kicks it, like the little toe flick thing. i know ya'll know what i'm talking about. i also absolutely hate when teams have flyers with horrid flexibility, in particularly play button scorpions, and they all pull it on their own count, and by the time they pull it, it's time to cradle. same goes for bows where they are practically sideways to hold it because they don't have the flexibility.
i also hate in cradles and baskets where the flyer lets herself out. it's hard to explain, but again, if you saw it you'd know what i mean.
ok, getting off my soapbox
most of the things that peeve me are things that could easily be fixed if properly trained/coached/taught. and i think that's the biggest reason they bother me.
I know what you mean and I hate that too! Also freehand stretches where the leg is barely above the arms (in a T)....it looks so sloppy and weak to me. Also ball ups that barely tuck up at all.

left leg stunts and opposite way full downs...i also hate for level five stunts when people copy other stunts and use the same stunts they have in previous years.

Straight ride basket tosses, and straight cradles. They're just so plain! Also when people fake their bows and arrows! If you're gonna do something, do it right!

when you're on a level 2 team, you really can't do anything other then that...
but adding on, when flyer's lean over so much in their scorpions; when backspots don't do anything it a stunt-barely touching it, not helping/lifting

I don't like it when bases don't fight and step out when the flyer is falling. My old group always used to step out of stunts when we were just learning stunts and I hate an injured ankle so when I got dropped I kept hurting it over and over: but really if your flyers falling you have to reach in and get her.
Sloppy walkovers out of stunts where the flyer almost falls on her head.
Teeny tiny flyers that are like 4 feet tall on senior teams. It bugs me because the other girls are taller and bigger, and it looks awkward.

When the whole team but one stunt does a full up or one and a half up and then the stunt that goes straight up falls.

ikr! I hate it when people fake bow and arrows! I'm like seriously? You can't get your leg behind your arm? It bugs me also to see the really bad scorpions where the flyer can like barely grab her foot and the leg is really bent.

Laziness by a flyer in any stunt makes me cringe.
Stunts that, oh I don't know, FALL.
I really don't like libs, I don't know why I just do.
*Unpopular Opinion Time* I love tick tocks, but now I almost don't want to see one. They're all becoming the same sequence of tick tocks when you look team to team. I know they're super hard, I'm just kind of getting tired of seeing them. However there is only so much you can do with stunts.

laziness from flyers when they cant put a certain stunt position and they give up.
goshhh you're a flyer strretchhhhhhhhhhhh

Watching Coed teams, mainly small and large limited with 2-3 guys basing a stunt with all girl groups on the side. Why don't most coaches spread the guys out for strength purposes. Why do you have some flyers who need all the guys, drives me crazy everytime I see it.

I dont mind when flyers dont pull a "real" bow... I mean as long as the body alignment is straight and its a quick change its fine but if its obvious thats there is enough time in the single series then pull through...and I like when flyers pull from the inside of the foot for bows because most of the flyers I watch who grab the bow the right way tend to cheat it.
I like watching routines when the most flexible flyers are not point even if they should be based on flexi but when whole teams are all evenly flexible. But I DOOOOO LOVE a good straight leg. I always stretch all the girls on my team every practice no matter what.
