cheerleading

I will most likely be basing for stunting in cheer, and I’ve never done it before so I dont know how hard it is. is it very difficult for an average or even weak strengthed person to hold the girl up? it seems like girls can do it who arent very strong, does technique help a lot with this? and what would most likely happen if I wasnt able to base or fly? im the only person on the sqad whose never done stunting before which is partially why im so nervous about it

Answer #1

its not about strenght its more about all of you as a team and your technique. if you couldnt base or fly you would be one of the girls that are in front of the stunts cheering. dont be nervous just have fun, they will teach you what you need to know.

Answer #2

if youre not going to be a flyer..youre most likely going to be a base.. I think technique helps a lot , especially when you have to keep the girls up for a while, and make it look easy when its not… but its not impossible

Answer #3

it’s not hard once you learn the right way to do it. the coaches will help you out, and if you have a good flyer then you dont feel hardly any weight.

Answer #4

technique is pretty much what stunting is. If your flyer is good, and knows how to hold her own weight, anyone can base her, no matter how strong. Just pay attention, and maybe watch some video’s on youtube of tutorials of stunts? they may help you a bit, so you get the idea of it. if you don’t base or fly, maybe back.. or front. your coach will make the right decision for you, but try your best, and your capable of anything you want :)
