Cheerleading - fear of heights


Expert: Britney - 4/11/2007

Question
I want to try out for cheerleading in college, but I am afraid they will want me to be a flyer because I am 5'4" and 115 lbs.  My only experience in stunting is one year as a base.  I would love to be a flyer because it looks like a lot of fun, but I have tried it and I'm so scard of heights! The stunt part isn't so bad, but I don't know if I could ever do a cradle, let alone a basked toss.  Do you have any advice for me?

Answer
Sorry I'm not much of a help but I really don't know about this one.  I would just say try it.  I was really scared my first few times doing new things like in stunts but after you get use to it.  Its lots of fun.  I being a flyer over a base is more fun but I have never been a base before.  I've always been a flyer.  After you try it a few times you get use to it and it can be lots of funn.  I would just give it a try hopefully this helps sorry I dont really know what you can do.  Good Luck hope everything works out.
