Answer 1

What you need to do is stay tight the entire time, and ride the pop to the top. If you aren't sure when that is watch/feel your bangs. They'll press flat against your forehead when you get popped and ride up and then lift off your forehead the second you hit the top. That's when you want to lay out (lean back) and come back down. Don't pike until you get about to your base group's hands as they reach up to catch you.

Do NOT lean back right as they pop you or you will go way back over their heads. You have to wait until you hit the top of the ride.

There are drills and videos that can help you learn this: http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=cheer+1...

Good luck!

Answer 2

remember to ride the cradel you don't hit the pike position till the end! go on youtube and type in stunt cradel ! you will find alot of reaalllyy helpful videos

Answer 3

when you ride to the top light really straight like a plank and slap your thighs at the front with straight arms. hit this on the 3rd count.

then move your arms to catch your bases

make sure you toes and pointed and your ankles and together.

this probably isnt much help.

its hard to explain it.

hope this helps.

good luck with your full down
