All-Star Trends You Hope Will Continue After Worlds 2014

[Official OWECheer]

The shorts---->bootie shorts problem could be alleviated by simply ordering shorts with a longer inseam, say, 4 inches? from there you could have alterations if a girl's shorts are too long.

I love the shorts as well, but surprisingly, I liked Junglecats' capris even better. Also really loved them on TGLC in 2012 (?). I just think the athletes look a lot less like wearing underwear, plus it really looks clean and athletic in the routine IMO. :)
So I really hope for this uniform trend to continue.. :)

I personally love the capris. If done in certain colors, they look really good and athletic. When I run, I choose capris because then my legs don't chafe and I think they are more comfortable. So I hope more and more capris emerge (just maybe not in white or yellow).

I love this thread way too much.

Thank you ! I though it was about time we got some more positive energy about worlds on the main feed.

More creative level 5 baskets other than the standard switch kick double. I was happy to see a lot more this year and the return of Oscar's kick full kick full. I'm still patiently waiting for someone to recreate the basket from SJS large coed 2008.

I actually believe Kentucky Elite international team (10?) did the basket or one similar. Im not sure if the video is still on youtube.

I like when things get mixed up when it's well deserved. Seeing gyms globe for the first time and how excited their athletes did my heart such good :kiss:

I've always said I liked capris in solid colors. Wasn't a fan of the print on them. I also work out in compression capris and think I would be very comfortable competing in them. They compliment a busy top well if they are just a solid color maybe with some piping down the side or a small logo on the hip area.

I agree! A lot of non-cheer friends of mine (male and female) think the shorts are more modest too.

More of the underdog gyms are starting to place high at worlds, some even beating the major gyms!

The increase in Senior International Teams, and of course, all the International teams who brought it this year. (& in the last few years). :chestbump:

Continued improvement in International teams. I found the caliber of many teams, especially in IO(C) 6 was amazing. Also, many of the country teams at ICU have really improved over the past 3 years, and I'm impressed. Shout out to the teams from Germany and England for sticking in my mind

I liked the CA Snipers capris. I think we have the same taste.

Whenever I wear leggings to cheer (or anywhere really) they're falling down... I would not like to compete in them. Do other people not have this issue? The other day we were doing high knees and I was seriously pulling them up every 5 steps.

I have a tiny waist and I can sometimes have issues. I alter mine to be tighter in the waist. I imagine I'd do the same thing if I had them as part of my uniform.

Side note-- I don't mind capris or shorts, but I probably wouldn't want to wear them. Most comfortable uniform bottom I ever wore was my motion flex Varsity skirt in college (in my avatar). It was stretchy and comfy and hit right below my belly button, so I never had to worry about my butt crack coming out. The spankies were boy short and a little tight... probably to the point of being uncomfortable, but I didn't have to worry about exposing my lady parts. I'd be perfectly content wearing that skirt with a crop top for all star. I don't need my hip bones showing, but maybe that's the conservative old lady in me.

I don't have this problem, but I usually purchase ones that sit up high. (around my belly button) I've never had a problem with my Old Navy brand ones or Academy Sports brand. I think it's called BCG
