I have been cheering for 3 years, and have always been a base. But now they want me to fly, I am scared. It si nothing to be ashamed of if you are afraid of heights, or if you are afraid to cradle, i am going through the same thing. If you really have a problem with it talk to your couch. She might have some hints. One thing that works for me is that I DO NOT LOOK DOWN!!! It helps a lot. But the most umportant thing is that don't show that you not nervous, because they might take you out of flying. That just hapened to me. Now I am only a alternate because i was timid. Just beleive in your self and everything will be fine. Trust me. Good Luck.
