How to Do a Standing Tuck
On behalf of expertvillage.com my name is Hung. I am the cheer coach for the Cheer Odyssey Rockets Team. We are going to be going over forming a standing tuck, a very elite skill in cheerleading. Here we go 5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 once again standing tumbling you have to have counts for this. Leprea is going to be clapping on 1,2 she is going to low V on 3,4 this her prep for her standing tuck. Okay on 5,6 she going to swing taking a big dip all the way through keeping her chest straight up in the air, she going to leap as hard as she can with her arms and her legs is what we call spotting. Spotting the wall or spotting something that is in front of her. She is going to explode through as she gets onto the top she is going to tuck her knees in. so lay down for me. As far as knee position goes it is the same thing for running tumbling. Arms are going to be up in the air just like she stretching for the ceiling. Legs are going to come up. She is going to tuck her thigh into her chest keeping chins perpendicular to her chest when she flips over. She is going to tuck in right their and she is going to wrap her arm around, grabbing the back of her legs or the front, keeping her legs pointed and she is going to spot to the ground. Stand up. One more time here we go. Tuck here we go 5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, up 1.
