How to do a Beginning Cheerleading Stunt – Double Thigh Stand

 

The Double Thigh Stand is one of the most important beginner stunts you should know. From this stunt, you can do a variety of variations to create numerous stunts.

Tips:

• Make sure your Bases have deep lunges for the Flyer to stand on.
• Make sure the Flyer steps in the “pockets” of the Bases, not on their legs.
• The Flyer should start with her right foot first and climb using the “Step, Lock, Tighten” Method.
• Have the base hold the flyer’s legs by wrapping their arms around the flyers knees.
• The back spotter should hold the flyer’s waist.
• When you are learning the double thigh stand, you should add a front spotter. ( You can never have enough spotters!)
• To dismount, have the bases hold the flyer’s hands and their armpit.
• The flyer lands in front of the stunt with her feet together.

Here is an example of how to incorporate this stunt into your stunt formation:
