Cheerleading - Stunting


Expert: Kimmi - 5/26/2009

Question
Hi i've been cheering for 2 years and for those years i've been a flyer. My teams always been pretty tall though. I'm starting my 3rd year of cheer now and my team is kind of shorter and the flyers are all around the height 4 foot 11 to 5 foot. I'm 5 foot 2.5 and i'm wondering if that's to tall for a flyer. I weigh 96 pounds. - thanks

Answer
Hi Cat,

  I can never stress enough that there is no set height or weight for a flyer. Every team is different, and stunt group works differently. Trust your coach and your flying skills. Last year I had a flyer who was 5'6. Good luck to you and enjoy!!!

Happy Cheering,
Kimmi
