Has anyone heard anything about what they're considering changing? Is there anywhere you can go to voice your opinion as a coach on the rule changes they're considering?
I have a few things I'd like to see changed, as would every coach I'm sure, but there's a big one I'm hoping to see in there.
I really want them to start allowing flips to come braced by preps with no back, or shoulder sits, or shoulder stands.
Shoulder stands with a spotter to click ankles are IMO much secure than preps are, and it would give smaller teams a shot.
For teams of eleven flips aren't possible to be performed in pyramid at all unless the rules change, even though for everything else they do the brace will he a backless prep and it will be considered safe then.
Or, for small teams, front flips braced by two shoulder sits should be the safest flip in all of cheerleading because they're performed exactly like a suspended forward roll.
What are the chances this becomes legal? My HS where I coach is UCA so we use shoulder stands for a lot of pyramid, but for flips I have to have two people come touch the shoulder stand in order for them to be able to be a brace. It makes working flips without the shoulder stands being awkward very difficult.
