    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    ICU is separate and governed by ICU. This is the 2 (or 3 day) competition immediately preceeding (Thursday/Friday) USASF Worlds. It's composed of all the national teams from member countries. IASF essentially governs the international USASF divisions. There are some teams that, in a way...

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    You have to request them from IASF. But you only get the link to them if you are a non-US member.. If you are within the US, it refers you to USASF and how to get them there. And even there you can't just find it and download it. But same rules, as the document is "USASF/IASF Rulebook."

    I never said that I didn't So are we done with needing to breakdown every single thing?

    Again, if she didn't want to talk about it, the simple thing to do would have been to not reply, instead of getting annoyed that someone is engaging your point into a discussion. Btw thanks, but I don't need to be ensured that what I'm talking about is important. If noone wants to talk about it...

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    If she doesn't want to talk about it then there was no need to reply to me. She said she didn't think it was fair/rational. I said, well this is why Les said it happened (and added info about that it could eventually have a bigger impact than we think). She then told me "im being nice, but you...

    Uh... I got your point long ago (about everyone else did too about if being unfair for youth to twist but young adults can't...hence why it's since been revoked). I wasn't trying to teach you the rules...it's called starting a discussion or conversation... You know to actively talk about what...

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    Interesting, do Sweden's rules require the cheer be in the middle of the routine? In the US (eg. ICU) and Germany it can be wherever you want in the routine...most just do it at the beginning for simplicity's sake.

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    I think that was the exact argument they used to get FIG to start to support the acceptance of ICU into the IOC. FIG was strongly against ICU for a long time because of the similarities to sports that FIG controls (for example, acro). I think the cheer is going to stick around for a while...

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    I guess you're not aware of all the divisions the IASF is creating... Amongst regular levels and age groups (similar to USASF age/divisions/levels), Les said the point of the limitations was because International 1-4 is coming. So this leads me to ask: How is this going to affect, if at all...

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    Maybe to get tumbler from A to B in a creative way, but not for scoring at least.

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    I get what you mean, but with the split of IASF from USASF, certain teams are subject to IASF rules and others USASF.... Which is what makes it all the more convoluted in the long run. The only way to really make sense of it, is to find out how IASF is actually splittong off and how that will...

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    Because in some countries, funding for the sport is tied to whether or not the sport is recognized by the country's Olympic committee/organization. In Germany, for example, funding for sports comes from DOSB (their Olympic Federation) and then funnels down into the local state committess and...

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    From what I've been told, the no twisting rule is across the board on all international levels, not just 5/6. 5/6 would just be teh only division effected at Worlds in Orlando at the moment. If you go to IASF and look at what divisions they have, they have a division and levels for each age...

    They also changed how you get a copy of the rulebook. Level rules used to be online at usasfrules.com. Now you have to request a copy and provide information to prove you're a member.

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    Yes, but they still do it. I'm not as savvy on scoring rubrics in other countries (only have experience with Germany personally), but a lot of them will "get credit" because it's a legal skill but will get a lower execution score and potentially a deduction for an incomplete twist/bad catch...

    All-Star New Iasf Rules

    Oh that happens all the time...because they want to keep up with what other teams are doing. It's not right, but it happens more so than it should.

    All-Star Usasf 2015-2017 Cheer Safety Rules

    Like Sarah S said, a cradle is a specific type of dismount. Dismount: The ending movement from a stunt or pyramid to a cradle or the performing surface. Movements are only considered “Dismounts” if released to a cradle or released and assisted to the performing surface. Movement from a cradle...

    All-Star Usasf 2015-2017 Cheer Safety Rules

    That's a regular level 5 dismount out of a lib to a cradle...and was allowed and is still allowed (I see no changes in the rules for dismounts). Maybe you're confusing the basket rule that both feet need to be in/on flyers hands? Because a kick double dismount is not a basket...therefore, they...

    All-Star Usasf 2015-2017 Cheer Safety Rules

    Your video example shows a power press low high (from an extended stunt, press, extended...this is illegal and was previously in L4). 2014/15 Rule: Release moves that land in extended position must originate from ground-level and may not involve any twisting or flipping. 2015/16 Rule: Release...
