Cheerleaders: Can you explain a hurkie and a hurdler. I still don't understand what makes them different?

Question

I don't know what the difference is. Some people say that your knee points down in a hurkie and some people say that your knee points down in a hurdler. Some people say your leg goes out to the side, some people say it goes in front. I'm so confused. Will someone who knows what they're talking about please explain?

Answer 1

a hurdler is straight so once you do it it should be straight in font of you. a hurkie is to the side barley.. they are almost the exact same thing..
