First - how many posts do you have to have before you have sufficient priviledges to post in the all star section?

Hopefully someone that can help will see this here. This is from Cheersport's website -

For Jumps, the team performs squad double toe touch back walkovers. This team would score in the Medium Range because their connected tumbling skills were Level 1. To score in the High Range, this team would have needed to connect a back handspring to their double toe touches (there must be a pause before the back handspring). CHEERSPORT allows a 4 count pause in between the jump(s) and tumbling in Levels 1, 2, and 4. The four count pause may include a set position for tumbling but may not include choreography including but not limited to a clap or motions.
Does this mean that a level 2 team that does triple toe touches into dive rolls then bhs would be illegal? It sounds like they are not allowed to do anything immediately following the jumps. Our team does their jump sequence which ends with triple toe directly into dive roll, bhs, 2 count pause, bhs. We have not had any problems at any other comps, but the way I am reading this rule it sounds like we may have a problem at nationals in Feb.

Thanks for your replies!

Triple Toe - Dive Roll - BHS wouldn't be illegal, but wouldn't put you in the high range at Cheersport because of the forward roll between the jump and level appropriate tumbling.

Thank you for the clarification.

Hola!

I was contacted by a CHEERSPORT representative who wanted to clear this up:

That is in correct, it WOULD put you in the High Range. Kevin wanted to know if you would please comment in both the Newbie and Regular thread talking about this and say to call CHEERSPORT directly (1-888-Ready-Ok) or email me and I will help these coaches. My email is [email protected].
