Level Two

Level two is the second lowest level. Tumblers are allowed to flip but only do back handsprings nothing without hands. They cannot combine a jump or a flip into a back handspring, this means there are no jumps to back handsprings, and there is no standing back handspring into another back handspring. If you do a round off before a series of back handsprings, it’s allowed. I know it could be a little confusing but that's the rules. Single legged stunts are allowed but are prohibited if the bases hands are extended. Stunt groups are allowed to cradle their flyers. Basket tosses can be used in this level, the bases have to start from the ground, and the stunt cannot twist or move.
While searching for a good level two team to show you, I found the absolute funniest team! The routine has a lot of different and unusual moves. They use the Soulja Boy as part of their dance and they are extremely energetic the whole time. The quality of the video is bad, I'm sorry, but you have to watch this video. Tell me what you think of the team compared to the other videos I posted of Top Gun in my other posts.

WATCH THIS VIDEO!

  1. The video is so cute! I like how they incorporated Soulja Boy in their routine. There is a huge difference between level one and two. The videos made me realize that cheerleading is so much more than "RAH RAH, GO TEAM!"

  2. I agree with Carly on the "RAH RAh..." part. I always thought of cheerleading to be something girls did to avoid beeing couch potatos. But clearly it has some gymnastics, and more than regular sound of cheer which never helped me in any sport, it defenetly did distract me but not help, still I change my openion and now I would agree that cheerleding is a sport.
