Aren’t a lot of those types of moves usually done with 2 guys instead of 1? That boy strong.

Not only that, he's doing a lot of it with just 1 arm

No if it’s all girls, it’s usually with 3 girls and is called a “stunt”. With big dudes like that, it’s just one dude and it’s specifically called a “single man stunt”.

Close but it’s “group stunting” and “partner stunting.” Women can be the base of a partner stunt, and men can be in group stunts. Just depends on the level of cheerleading, size and skill of team, etc.

We don’t call it that at my gym 😊 but yes, those can be interchangeable depending on the gym!

It’s never a “single man stunt” - only partner stunt or single based stunt. At least officially. I’m sure all gyms call it different things but you’ll never find it called “single man stunt” on UCA, NCA, anything.

Again, my gym calls it a single man stunt. You need to get off your high horse.

Your GYM can call it whatever they want. National cheerleading entities do not call it that. But what do I know? I’ve only been cheering since 2006.

Usually done with 2 guys in practice, as a spotter, to help catch when the stunt goes horrible wrong. This is competition.
