My analogy wasn't great - I admit not my strong suit, but I still think it makes the point. I agree with you, the majority of HS coaches do not have the knowledge or equipment to teach a standing full, BUT they don't need it. THEY"RE NOT DOING IT. Go ask every HS coach that cannot teach one if any of their athletes are working on one or if they've tried to teach one. My guess is 100% will say no. Where is the risk then? No ones teaching them, no ones performing them. Why ban them? The high school score sheet isn't geared towards throwing standing fulls. On our scoresheet ALL tumbling is only worth 5pts total anyways. Why would a coach risk it with 1 or 2 standing fulls when full squad bhs will out score it?
