individual proficiency is there, stunts also big but i think its too messy le.. bad choreography makes the whole routine look very "luan".. they can do many stuff but the choreography did not bring out tat point... 4.5/10.. haha maybe i'm too critical..

Ya their stunts and gym are good though but really very messy and their dance sucks think Aces would be better in Dance

yep. i agree with KJ. They had 3 major falls and too many wobbles. They have very good tosses but their stunts lack continuity. eg : they did a fly bird but that was it. no flow.

eh elegant !! look at the stunts la !! Ask you to look at stunts you only notice ppl's legs. wa lau.

wow...their tosses damn nice...they got double back tuck leh..thot that was "illegal" chaang?? think the other nice stunt they did was the toss to swedish fall..that was nice...probably sth which we can do with our std right now and with some training...but agreed, abit messy and lacks continuity...

ps. the taiwanese supporters shouting in the background was abit of a turn off for me...haha...

ha it's a elevator toss to flat back la. shouldn't be a problem.

Double back tucks are illegal in Singapore's context but in other countries it's perfectly legal. Even for cheerleading in Berlin, Germany, 3 tier human pyramids are allowed. So it really depends on where the competition is held and by what standards the routine is judged by.

eh why illegal? but it really looked damn nice haha the double back tuck. Isit due to prob of injuring back when fall and cradle due to impact?

chaang said...

bascially, cheerleading association of singapore has stated that

1) No double backtucks allowed

2) No triple fulls (twist layout) allowed. ie: double twist layout is ok.

If you ask me, (2) is far more dangerous than (1). But it's stated in the rules so there's really nothing much you can do about it. yep.
