stunting

My CP has an injury of CMC joint in thumb. She is a base. Currently not basing or tumbling working her way back. Trying to find splint that would work for both. Has a good brace for stunting but metal bar in it pretty much makes tumbling a no go. She is seeing a hand specialist and getting OT so...

Hi all, I'm due to take my level 1 and 2 coaching course with USASF in the next month or so. I can't really find any material to revise on practical stunting and tumbling however. I know how to do the stunts required but want to make sure I don't miss any important safety points. Any advice in...

Twelve months ago I dislocated my shoulder cheering and badly damaged my rotator cuff when a girl fell backwards out of an extension lib and in my attempt to catch her, the arm catching was pulled out of joint. I then started to develop a fear of stunting and instead of just getting back to it...

So with collegiate style handspring ups being legal in level 5 nowadays, and with prep level inversions (True hand-in-hand toss to feet a la Florida Top Dog) also being legal level 5 skills, are the only stunting skills currently reserved for level 6 rewinds, flip dismounts, and extended...

I have been coaching a youth team for a few months now. Almost all of them have back handsprings now and I'm really hoping we can be level 2 for this season. However, I'm having trouble with them progressing in stunting. It seems like when they're stunting they lose focus and we aren't able to...

Hi I was searching through the forums and found this stunt where the flyer flipped out of the stunt at prep level with only one name could someone possibly tell me the name of this stunt and the steps to do it

I am wanting to compile a pass off chart for stunting by level. Does anyone have suggestions or something like this already made? Thanks in advance!

Is coed stunting hard? I'm trying out for my college team and I'm a really good tumbler but I've never done stunting. The first time I'll ever do it will be at the clinics and I'm kinda scared haha

Click For Full Article Not everyone is born to be a flyer, and if you are not a flyer – you definitely know this. For some people, it’s that they are afraid of heights. For others, it’s about trusting a single person or group of people to make sure you do not get dropped on your head. There are...

Hey I'm a flyer for my team and I'm working on going up. When I go up my bases say I bouncr too much and I bring my knees together like I'm going up into a cupie but we do the old school simple step in. Is there any way I can fix this? When I go up they say I also stick my butt out too much, is...

We've just got the level rules to sweden, and I'm unsure about some things... 1. Is it okay to do tictocs in a one-based thighstand without a backspot? 2. Since you have to have braces in libs at prep level, can you have your backspot as the brace or do you have to have a complete other...

Is there a good age breakdown or recommendation for youth stunting on the school and non competitive level.

I know University of Nebraska is a non stunting and non tumbling team because someone got hurt like 10 years ago. Is there any other colleges that dont stunt or tumble?

Conflicting information. A: If you open with stunt, you need a second stunt series to prove you are strong enough to pull off stunts. So do 2 stunt series. (Currently we open with a stunt, tumble, cheer, dance - only 3 eight counts), stunt, pyramid B: One stunt series is enough. Lengthen...

For a while I feel like allstar has come to terms with the fact that tumbling is not learned in a day. It takes many hours of practice doing the right technique to develop strong tumbling. But when it comes to building (which is baskets, stunts, and pyramids) we take the exact opposite approach...

Last year when we were at another school for an away basketball game I was confronted by the other team's coach while warming up our stunts, she told me we were not allowed to stunt at their school bc they didn't have the insurance to cover it and their girls aren't allowed to stunt. Does anyone...

I know there are multiple threads about this already but I'm still kind of confused. I've been doing gymnastics/cheer for 3 years and just recently I've been having a lot of pain in my wrists especially while stunting (I'm a side base on a level 3 team) and doing BHS and BWO. I've tried taping...

I'm interested in finding a stunting partner so I can start getting ready for college cheer. (I'm a high school junior.) I live very close to UT. If anyone knows or is someone that's interested, please let me know. Thanks so much.

I have some coaches that cheered for school and are great coaches but have no experience in stunting. We are primarily an all star gym so stunting is a must. Does anyone have any resources or suggestions for helping these new to stunting cheer coaches?
