All-Star This Basket Is Illegal In College And Level 6. Who Can See Why?

it illegal because i dont really understand how she got to where she did.......

So is squelch.

So is "squoozen." As in..."good job on that, you stayed squoozen and yes that's a word I made up, you can google it"

A direct quote from one of our awesome coaches. Squoozen is a regularly used word in the gym now :D

That's true. I think the all-star rules are a little bit clearer. 1 1/4 flips and 2 extra skills. An X is a skill, a kick is a skill, a twist is a skill, etc. The arabian is 2 1/2 skills on top of the flip.

But then what about kick kick doubles? Isn't that a 4 trick basket then?

 

[Diamond]

Idk. All I see is a low basket toss.

 

[flipmac]

It's illegal simply due to too many twists... That was a goal of 2.5 twists... Max is two

 

[ptcheerboi]

It's illegal because she begins a flip in the direction of no "back spot" it would be legal if she had a front spot

Are you talking about a kick, kick, double full? Like with a flip? I don't think you can do that.

No, just a normal lvl 5 switch kick double... or even a hitch kick double. Wouldn't that actually be 4 elements?

Thats what I thought you meant. We're talking about level 6/college rules, not level 5.

Correct, this is discussing college. But to answer your question, USASF Level 5 only has restrictions on how many twists it is allowed to have - since flipping tosses are illegal anyway... so technically, you could do Switch Switch Switch Double Baskets in Level 5 (haha, I'd like to see that!), because it's allowed a max of 2 1/4 twists and no flips.

Question.. Would this basket, without any twists (just the arabian to cradle) be legal the way the group is set up there? With no one loading her in from the back.

I think so, at least for all-star:

A. Tosses are allowed up to a total of 4 tossing bases. One base must be behind the top person during the toss and may assist the top person into the toss.

All girl collegiate baskets are terrifying to watch.

I have seen many teams do arabian baskets without fronts so I'm not sure. I went on youtube to look up level 6 worlds teams and found flyers. If it is illegal, the way they get around this rule is quite interesting! If the arabian in the opening!

There are a couple things in there... but level 6 is the wild wild west of cheer from 6 years ago.
