tumbling

Hi, I'd really like some advice on a tumbling pass for try outs for L3. Would a front punch (step-step) front handspring, front handspring step out, ariel be ok as a single level 3 pass? Daughter has opportunity to try out for a l3 team, previous years they've asked athletes to do series...

I know every kid is different, but on average, how long does it typically take for most athletes to learn different tumbling skills like a back handspring, back tuck, standing full, running full, running double, etc.?

Im so frustrated with my tumbling right now. I'm 16 now but when I was 13 I was on a J5 and S4 team and training all my level 6 skills on the rod/spotted on the floor. On my team I was a main tumbler and center flyer. My coaches started pushing me around February to get all of my level 6 skills...

Hey - Does anyone know if tumbling has to be synced to count in the 24/25 season using United Scoring? I'm pretty sure it had to be last year, but I can't find it on the document this year?

Hi Y'all! My team is a high school team that will start competing next year. I am confused about what level we should be at. For tumbling we have several round off tucks, and a two round off hands tuck. For stunting, Straight up extension, Straight up extension lib, a toe touch basket toss, and...

Hello! I still have yet to hear from UF (the college of my dreams), but WHEN I get accepted (putting that energy out there), I really want to make their cheer team. I would need to learn a RO BHS series, Standing BHS and Tuck, and a RO BT. I have 0 tumbling skills and when it comes to tumbling...

Trying to find out if in L4 non tumbling I can do a spotted back tuck (all on the performing surface). It falls under stunting rules but I am unclear I whether I can have one spotter just in contact or if I need two. I certainly don’t want a hand to hand connection. Thanks in advance!

Hi guys! So I need a little bit of advice. I want to go into UF and join their cheer program. Their sideline team requires a standing back tuck and a RO back tuck. While although if things don’t work out I can tryout for their club team which competes, but the sideline team is my main...

I've been teaching music classes for camps at my center and we had acro dance this week- and I have to wonder-why is it that cheer doesn't use more of the tumbling skill variations used in acro at the lower levels? There were some that definitely seemed like they'd be legal, but I can't recall...

We have decided to take my daughter, who is in middle school, off her current comp. team, which is non-all-star. She is one of the main flyers. There is gym in our area offers a full year prep team and also a half year team which only runs for 3 months but starts mid-year. While she picks up...

Hello, Newbie in the cheer world, I have a 9 year old who currently practices 3x a week for 2hrs and is currently taking tumbling classes. Now, when do we draw the line of to much tumbling class? I do not want to over work my 9 year old with so many hours of cheer practice + tumbling classes...

I need some honest opinions/advice. My seven year old daughter recently became very interested in cheer and thinks she might enjoy being on a team. My main concern is she has no tumbling skills. She can’t even do a handstand or a cartwheel at this point. She’s taken dance classes since she was 3...

I need some advice. I want to go to college. I would obviously love to cheer in college. Most likely a community college. Universities are probably out of my price range.. I’m in the south. Does anyone know of any (community) colleges down south that would be a good fit? I have heard about...

Hi there. My daughter just turned 8 and we are at a small gym in Texas. She does level 3 and 4 tumbling skills; but does Allstar D2 with a Mini L1 team. She just started doing individual tumbling competitions with her gym and we are trying to work on new more advanced tumbling passes. She has a...

Sometimes, in level 5 or 6, there are athletes with a round off handspring fulls competing against athletes with whip doubles. Where do you put the athlete that has a full but doesn't have variation passes. They don't really belong on level 4 but they wouldn't really be able to compete against...

Hi! I’m a junior in high school and I really want to cheer in college, so I need to upgrade my tumbling skills. At the moment I can do bhs series, and am working standing tucks. I need to learn standing tucks, bhs tuck and bhs layout by next March. Do you guys think this is possible? What are...

I've been taking random notes/collecting data about the past 4 years. This year was my first year coaching this team. This year I made a deal with a local gymnastics gym to have the athletes come to 2 classes a week. After practice 2-3 times a week our tumbling coach would spot/give drills...
