Yes you can, however, you have to be careful. If your backspot is only staying connected to one leg during the transition and your bases throw your flyer too high and the connection with the backspot goes above prep level, that is considered an extended single leg stunt and you will get a...
Bases have left foot at waist level, right foot is straight out and up in the air(backspot can hold it up) and the flyer pushes off the bases front shoulder to do a switch up (inverted switch up to extended one foot from waist level)

Ahh gotcha! It does say allow 7-10 days but I've received responses in as little as 2. They are pretty quick if you follow all of the rules laid out on their website ( Cheer Questions | USASF Cheer Rules ). If you do send it I'd love to know if the ruling is different from my response! Always...
They do not have to remain connected to both ankles in either your scenario or the OP's scenario, given that your bracer remains in contact through the entire transition. The reason is a little difficult to see but is very good to know as a level 1 coach as I anticipate a lot of calls will be...
Yes the backspot would still need to stay connected. If she does not then this would be considered a pyramid release move.
Because the flyer is landing in a prone position, this is considered a transition rather than a dismount because the definition of a dismount is released by the bases to...
Actually you are not allowed to go from a prep handstand to extended two feet at level 4. Release moves that land in extended position must originate from waist level or below.
In theory your logic works and I use it for the most part as well, however it does not work for a number of things at...
So essentially the judges will watch the flyers hips from the initiation (dip) of the skill.
Both videos looks like a 1/4 up to me. Where your flyer grabs/ reaches to makes no difference as a judge will watch her hips and only her hips. In the first video, although her upper body is facing the...
While everything above is correct. Ensure that at no point the base holding the hands lifts the flyer above prep level, if that occurs, it becomes illegal. The only way to know 100% is to send a video in to the USASF.

The key when you read that rule is "no stunt (which is what that is), pyramid or individual may move over or under another SEPARATE, stunt pyramid or individual." Torso over torso.
If you make contact with the stunt, you are considered a part of that stunt and no longer considered separate...
So the legalities that I see are:
L4 STUNTS J2
L4 GENERAL TUMBLING B
So in a downward inversion, flyers must be assisted by 3 catchers, 2 of which are positioned at the head and neck. In Clarification 2 it states that the catchers must make contact with the waist to shoulder region to protect...
So air positions aren't ever considered a legality. Legalities in stunts come from, where a stunt starts, where it lands, was the flyer inverted at initiation, did it flip, was it a release move, dismount or toss, did it need a spotter and if so, did someone fill that role etc. and then...
If you're competitive Allstar, helpers don't go out on the floor! But Allstar prep would be a good alternative! Only 2 mins and not as much competition! :) good luck!

Cheersounds.com is amazing. You can buy premade mixes for really cheap, or you can make your own using the 8countmixer which we opted to do this year for our teams! It was really easy to use and came out to be around $345. You can request personalized voice overs through the program too if you...
Yes someone commented about level 2 above. So in the app it pops up as new! I'll be checking original date from now on! Thank you!

Ahhh gotcha! I'm using the app and it just pops up as a new thread! I'll check original dates from now on! Good to know! Thanks!

The only way to be 100% certain is to send it to the USASF for a ruling (following the rules on their website). However, my logic says legal at level 2 without a spotter.
This is my thought process:
Definition of PREP: The lowest connection between the base(s) and the top person is above...
