It Takes Practice
Executing flips backward in cheerleading often involves using one's hands to provide an additional push, facilitating a smoother rotation. This technique requires practice to achieve precision and minimize the risk of accidents.
In the instance captured in this image, the cheerleader attempted to land on their hands during the flip. However, the execution did not go as planned, resulting in a direct landing on their face. This unintended landing failed to provide the desired push for a graceful return to their feet and resulted in what seemed to be a painful impact on the floor. Such incidents serve as a reminder of the dedication and hard work that cheerleaders invest in mastering their craft while acknowledging that accidents are an inherent part of the learning process.
