tyhis year i am trying out for the chereerr team and you need to be shorter to bmake it as a flyerrr.

and i am really good as a flyer.

is there any possible wayto get shorter without taking any pills er medications stuff likee that.

Answer 1

No. Be happy with the way you are, if you're good enough they might make an exception to the height limit.

Answer 2

5 feet is plenty short.

If you are as good of a flyer as you say you are, then you should have no problems.

I'm 5'4 and I flew last year when I did competitive cheerleading.

I was actually as tall as my back spot and both my side bases were shorter than me.

Like most teams do chose the smallest girls, but if you want to fly just ask to be put it. It's really no big deal.

Last year when I began flying I was supposed to side base, but I was too weak. So then I was front spotting, but my stunt group said that I'd be lighter than their other flyer so we switched.

It's more about skill than size.

Answer 3

Get very tall lifters.

There is NO POSSIBLE way to get shorter without surgery.

Pills or no pills.

Answer 4

surgry no other way hon

Answer 5

i dont think so...you could technically stunt your growth i guess, but it's probably not worth it in the long run

Answer 6

no unless you want to cut off your feet then no

Answer 7

why don't you just become a gymnast?

that must be much more fun than being a cheerleader.

Answer 8

NO!  Height, like your hair and eye color, are genetic.  If your family members are tall, you are going to be tall.  There is absolutely nothing you can do about it.  The girls on our high school cheer team are all different heights, why is your school being so discriminatory against tall girls?  Why can't a taller girl be a flyer?  

-EDIT-  You are only 5 foot tall!  My goodness, you are just a little bitty girl.  The way you were talking, you made it sound like you were 5'9" or something like that.  Again, nothing you can do to make yourself stop growing or be shorter.

Answer 9

I wish people would stop spelling things like "okay" with two Y's.

It's not cool. It just makes you look like an idiot.

And no, it's not possible to get shorter. Once you're at that height, you will be that height forever until you get older (around your 60's).

Answer 10

Wow no, youre dumb you cannot make yourself shorter. Sorry to crush your cheerleading dreams,but you'll never be a flyer.

Answer 11

sorry no way to become shorter, and no offense gain some wieght!! you only weigh 87 thats insane youre lucky

Answer 12

Chop your head off.

Answer 13

Even if you did take pills they still wouldn't make you shorter.

There is no way sorry.

Answer 14

Nope, you won't have any luck there! I say try for the team regardless.. who knows maybe you're find something that you enjoy more in cheering. Go out for the team and try it for kicks- who knows maybe you'll enjoying doing something different. If you don't enjoy it you can always choose to try something else!

Good Luck!

And if cheering doesn't work out you should try for gymnastics if your school has a team! Or try lessons!

Answer 15

Don't try out for cheerleading this year.  Focus on spelling, grammar, and typing skills.  Those will get you much further in life than cheeleading.

Answer 16

It doesn't go by height, it goes by weight. If your bases are tall, then you can be tall too, just as long as you aren't heavy. And no, there's no way (as far as I know) to get shorter. But don't take being normal sized for granted!! Cheers!

Answer 17

well on my cheer squad we had ppl hu were tall and they didnt weigh much so they were flyers so if u weigh jus as much as the other flyers or a little bit more u can still b a flyer since u r experienced

Answer 18

First of all there's only one r in shorter.

So when you learn to spell ill answer your question

I am alpha, see me, fear me, respect me

Answer 19

...uh...Stupid! gosh

Answer 20

No i dont think so. You are pretty short. I think you could still be a flyer. Explain to them why and everything and ask them to let you show them what you can do... Good Luck. Dont change yourself for something else. if it could hurt you.

Answer 21

you cant become shorter stupid.

Answer 22

Wowww LOL!

Answer 23

cut your legs off

Answer 24

no. you cant make yourself shorter.

try to be one of the actual cheerers not a flyer

Answer 25

nope sorry. and just because your short doesnt mean you will be a flyer. i am only 5'0 and i'm a base.

EDIT: and how old r u if you are 5'0, like 12? cuz thats the only reason i can think of for you wanting to be shorter. i'm 15 and i'm 5'0 and thats EXTREMELY short.

Answer 26

um, if you're so tall

quit cheerleading and be a model.

Sheesh.
