Hi! I'm currently on a senior 4 team as a backspot, but I don't feel like the position is right for me and I am interested in learning how to base. Should I go for it? I have main based 1 leg extensions and that's about it.. Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks :)

I'm on junior 2 and I am a flyer, my stunt group is point and one of the stunts we do is a switch up to heel stretch, kick up scorpion to prep sponge then extension cradle. We usually hit the stunt perfectly except one of my bases always wants to sponge 2 counts early, our coach is getting very...
I just switched to a new gym, and in one stunt I am secondary basing someone who is at least 4 inches taller than me and weighs a little more than I do. It's a bit too hard for me, and I don't want to fly, so I don't know what to do.
It seems like whenever I base, I'm shorter than the other base. I can't help it that I'm "fun sized". My coach last season made my 4'8 height aware to everyone by classifying me as a "midget". Some of the girls were very, very tall, at 5'6 and even 5'7. But does anyone whose short have problems...
In level 3, would a full team of single base/assisted single base extension libs score more points than a full team of group libs? What if there were mostly full groups with one or two single bases? Thank you!

My daughter is a base but she has not hit a growth spurt like the rest of the girls her age. What should she be doing to make herself a stronger better base?
I'm a bit confused by the dismount/release moves for level 1. If I have two bases under a two leg prep, one holding foot and ankle to make the prep legal, but no "back spot," can I legally pop cradle?

I know there are a million threads about main basing and basing in general but this is kind of a different story. I think i am too weak to hold up the stunt.Anyways, i was a flyer last year but now i base. My flyer is maybe a few pounds lighter than me. She barely squeezes in the air so have a...
So... I've been a base all my cheerlife. And I'm good at that and I like that I can control the stunt and you know, do what a base does. :)
Now, I've been asked to fly in the opening sequence and do a show n go to suicide. I was really suprised that I managed that and it was actually kind of...
Will we be called for an illegality on straight up single based extensions? They're on one foot until the top. I have seen other teams do this but I know that doesn't mean it's necessarily legal.
Andre ?
Okay, In a pyramid, with a single base stunt (base holding both feet w/ a side base holding ankle and foot), if the flyer is braced by someone at prep level can they do a one leg stunt, such as a stretch and/or lib or can they do a hitch where the side person is pushing it up to extention while...
I'm just starting out as a cheerleader and I just wanted to know what the difference between a main base a side base is. If anyone could help me out, that'd be great! (:
I searched the forum, but didn't see any threads specifically for secondary bases. I just became a secondary base. I was wondering if anyone had any drills/workouts/etc because I'm one of the weakest girls on the team, and I'm afraid I'm going to give out in a stunt. That actually happened to me...
Hey guys, I used to be a backspot but now I am a mainbase.. does anybody have tips on how to get stronger and become a better base? I tend to have a problem of pushing the stunt group over when we go up, which makes it a lot harder for my secondary, and I'm not sure how to fix that.
So I have a question partaining to bases coming in direct contact with tumblers. Because Inversions from the ground may now be transitioned into a stunt of any level, would a back handspring entry be legal? If the flyer were to do a standing handspring and simply not snap down her legs...
I searched to see if this is already a thread and found nothing so sorry if this is a repost! Everyone always talks about who their favorite flyer is or when they say who their favorite cheerleader is it's usually a flyer. What about the base and backspots? Who are your favorite bases/backspots?
