All-Star Do You Remember When...

The cheer skirts that had slits the whole way around it, cause it was cool when you twisted your skirt when out and could see all of your bloomer. Also when you could flip the back of your skirt up and show that crowd your butt cause you have wording on your bloomers.
 
Knee drops, tension rolls, climbing 3 to 4 persons high (I had no idea what a flyer was, ours climbed), winning at NCA cheer camp was IT! tossing, throwing and any building you could possibly think or dream of was legal (I am not sure anything was ever illegal). Dances were separate from the routine. Having the Nike swoosh tennis shoe was cutting edge! University of Maryland cheerleaders were our guide in high school. They wore the balls on their socks, so did we. They had a one piece uniform, so did we. You didn't have to curl your hair.
 
Remember how Bath & Body Works sold roll on glitter? It came in different scents (I was partial to Country Apple) and you rolled it on like roll on deodorant. We used it in college, stand there arms and legs out and someone else would "glitter me".

yesss!!! i totally forgot about the B&BW roll on glitter! I think I also had a blue one? (tooberry blue or something to that effect?) I was partial to country apple though :) I may have looked crazy, but i did smell like an orchard ;)

You were the best, Momma!! Although, I'm going solely based on photos of you in Beast Mode.
 

Here is another one.. we actually stopped the music and cheered in this one. I am the one when the show the recap that got on top of the diamond head!
Those were the best days!
 


talking about all this "old" stuff made me want to pull out an old video...

haha I so just watched my cheersport 2002 tape the other night! i was amazed at how bad everything was! from the backdrop to our choreo it was awful, but yet back then we thought it was all amazing!
 
Competing on wrestling mats and practicing in spaces that required flyers to tilt their heads to the side if they were in extensions....

Not knowing what the heck was going on when a competition busted out not only real mats but 9 of them.. "just ignore they exist"
 
when we did this body position (?!?)

in this picture we're competing on wrestling mats.. wearing bodysuits with snaps and kappa shoes ... and our music was on cassette tape.

Is this about circa 1999 - 2000? I think I could bust out an almost identical picture. welcome to sr. prep.
