then:
Full Down
A full down is an advanced dismount for an extension prep. The bases and back spot do the same as they would for a cradle. The flyer twists herself by her body position. The bases do not cause the twisting.
1. The flyer waits for the throw.
2. Once she hits the top, she takes a pocket to pocket technique, remembering not to drop her shoulders or look down. Pocket to pocket is keeping arms straight, but placing them in different places (one by the front pocket and other far back pocket). For example, if you are going to turn to the left you place your right arm across your chest to touch your left front pocket. The left arm goes behind your back to touch your right back pocket. Look to the left with head.
3. Once the flyer has spun around, she snaps into a pike.
You have to have a lot of power and whip into it. ]
haha im not a flyer but im on the varsity cheer team. but yea im sure you could do it in the air just give it a try and trust your bases. and a full down.
if your in a high V, then when they dip put your right arm in the front and left arm in the back or the oppisite if your going the other way.
then just twist in that direction
it definetly will take a few tries. but im sure youll gett it!
hope a helped at all=]
