    High School Pulled Hamstring Flyer :(

    Hi I am a freshman in high school and cheered on my high school team last winter and continued this winter (I skipped fall). I just started flying last year but was able to pick up on it. However, my left leg which is the one we pull heel stretches on has never been flexible. Last year, due to...

    Stunt Group's Flyer Problems

    In my stunt group the flyer doesn't hold her weight well. We have been giving her tips for it, as well as standing up straight and locking her knees out. We have been trying for a year now and she still doesn't do it! I thought she might not like flying, but she doesn't like basing either. When...

    Flyer?

    Hi, I just joined a cheer team I'm on level 1 ( this is my first time ever doing cheer! ) and I was chosen to be a flyer ( not permanently, just for that practice ) and we had to keep switching base groups ( it was just practice for all bases I think! ) My first base group was so good but then...

    Flyer Vs Tumbling Skills Question

    Hi, I am a newbie :) I have a question about being a flyer. When I cheered many many years ago ... it was rare for a flyer to have good tumbling skills... meaning, I did gymnastics before I joined cheer..because back in my day (in the 90s), competitive cheer was more-or-less sideline cheer. It...

    All-Star Base Or Flyer...?

    I just want honest opinions but please do not attack or think that I'm a crazy cheer mom (I can be crazy but I'm trying to be logical here). Is it totally wrong that I don't want my CP to be a base?? She's always been a flyer... When I coached her for 4 years, I tried the base thing with her...

    College How Tall Is Too Tall For A Coed Flyer?

    I'm about 5'5" -5'6", and I'm currently a high school sophomore. I've always flown and I've always been the best flyer, but I'm by far the tallest flyer on our team. The second tallest girl is about 5'2", and the third only 5'0". I haven't flown this year though, due to a few torn ligaments in...

    From Flyer To Base?

    I WAS bitter about being switched to base. Now I'm fine. Edited the entire post because I didn't like how I portrayed myself.

    Flyer Kicks From Scorpion To Front Heel Stretch And Back

    There are these stunts videos of Coach Daniel Casas 111 stunting his daughter that are amazing. I would post, but can't figure out how to post it. In it the flyer kicks from scorpion to front heel stretch and then back to a scorpion. How can someone work on mastering this skill.

    All-Star Choreography? Point Dancer/ Flyer.... Etc?

    In dealing with the younger athletes and or routines do you typically find the the younger/ cuter ( I know that sounds terrible) children in the front of the routine? Or do you think that it is truly the most talented or really rotated with all athletes to allow all children ample time in the...

    All-Star Flyer Unity....good Thing Or Bad?

    Just an observation and would like to get some thoughts. Last year our level 5 team flyers on one of our teams were frankly out of control. They banded together and color coordinated their outfits, bows and hair for nearly ever practice. They had an instagram account dedicated to only flyers...
