Cheerleading

		There are many different kinds of stunts. A stunt involves one to four other bases holding or tossing a cheerleader into the air. In general, all girl cheerleading stunts usually involve two to four other bases, while co-ed (“partner”) stunts are comprised of only one base. Co-ed stunting usually has one base (usually male) and their partner (their flyer, usually female)
	This is an example of a prep one of the easiest, most common stunts. For this stunt you need four people. The two bases, facing each other, hold the feet of the upright flyer at the collar-bone level, about shoulders length apart. This stunt also has a back spot. They hole the calves or ankles of the flyer. A front spot is optional and may be used to secure the stunt by the shins of the flyer. A prep can serve as an end in itself, or as a transition point between other, more complicated, stunts.
		Extension is also a popular stunt. The extension is a lot like the prep. Except that the bases arms are now fully extended upright, and locked. Now the back spot holds the ankles of the flyer. The back spot can also hole the wrists of the bases. You can have a front spot in this stunt also. If you did have a front spot in this stunt they would hold the wrists, of the bases, or the ankles, of the flyer. Which ever is comfortable for the bases, back spot , and flyer.
	Another Stunt is a Liberty, or a lib. In a liberty, the flyers right foot is in the hands of the two bases. Her left knee is bent, with the inner part of her foot nestled alongside the right knee. The left knee is pointed forward, and the thigh parallel to the floor. The two bases both hold the same foot, (the right one). The right base, or the main base, holds the foot as if she would in a prep or extension. Then the left base puts her left hand on the top of the flyers right foot. The right hand is on the bottom of the flyers foot (like sandwiching it).
		Heel stretches are another kind of one footed stunt. It is very similar to the liberty. Although, instead of pulling he leg up until her leg is at an upward >45 degree angle. the flyer whips her leg upward and grabs it with her hand level to or above her head. Proper execution is again characterized by the bases straight arms, and the flyers "tight" body position. The heel stretch is a very hard stunt on everyone. It also uses two bases, a back spot, and an optional front spot, and of course the flyer.
	Another stunt is a bow 'n arrow. In the bow 'n arrow, the flyer pulls the left leg vertical to the ground with her right hand. The torso twists to the right with just enough room for the left arm. She either points an arrow towards the crowd. She can also extend the left arm into a T motion, pointing to the left. This stunt is very complicated.
		Pyramids or mounts are multiple groups of stunts connected aerially by their flyers. This connection may be made in a variety of ways. One is a simple way of linking of the hands to having a multi-level pyramid. With the flyer already in the air acting as primary bases for another flyer or flyers on top of them. Pyramids and mounts are sometimes very complicated. There could be as many as the whole team just to put up one mount or pyramid.
	Something a little different then any kind of stunt would be a basket toss. It is an advanced stunt witch the bases propel the flyer straight upwards (10-30 plus feet) from the landing position. The flyer remains vertical during the the upward motion of the stunt. The flyer usually hasher hands in a goalpost position, until she is beginning to descend. Upon her descent, she can either just come down. The flyer can also engage in a dismount, or series of dismounts.
		There is many different things the flyer can do while she is being launched into the air in a basket. For a toe-touch the flyer treats the upward position of the bases as the lift of a jump, and performs a toe-touch at the climax of the toss. The toe-touch basket is the most common basket. Any other jump can, and has been, used instead. In such cases the dismount would be called by the name of that jump. There is also a scissor like motion. Another popular basket id the X-out ,or ball out. The flyer scrunches up into a ball and "explodes" in to a spread eagle.
	When cradling out of a stunt with four people including the flyer and on some predetermined count, the flyer or top girl is thrown into the air and comes down soft into the bases. Her arms should be tight with her toes pointed. The bases arms should catch the flyer on her back and behind her knees as if in a just married position. The back spot should have his or her arms in the flyers armpits. There are more ways to catch other then just regularly. There is a full-down, in a full-down or full twisting cradle, the flyer spins 360 degrees on her way down into the bases arms. Another one is a double-down, its the same as a full-down only she twists twice, 720 degrees.
