All-Star ? About Stunts

[Keep_Believing]

I have noticed at comp. some girls hold the flyers by the ankles and some girls hold the top of the flyers thigh and sometimes even their bottoms to keep them up in the air. When they hold their ankles it looks prettier and a lot more difficult. Does this effect how judges score the stunts?

It will affect their execution score if the flyer is sitting or leaning on the supporting hand. Ankle is best.

I personally thin ankle looks better b/c it doesn't seem like your trying that hard.!

omg thank you for asking this question i see it alot and its probably one of my biggest pet peeves especially when you have a tall back with two short bases and in an extended one leg the back is holding the flyer above the knee it just drives me crazy and i kinda feel like if you cant stay up with just your ankle being held then maybe you arent ready to be flying at that level jmo
