Thanks for sharing this gem! People might laugh at the style from back then, but it still took real talent and athleticism to get those stunts up.
@couscous197811 жыл бұрын
This is just talent, I grew up a kid in this era, the responders are absolutely right. It is so great to watch, such fluid moves and great orchestrations. The current era of cheerleading (I won't knock it) this is just so much more than that.

Music much better music than what is pumped out in the 2000’s. Even using the school fight song. More actual dance as well.

That was fantastic. I wish all cheer teams would perform like that today instead of trying to go 100miles an hour.
@stunningnerd5 жыл бұрын
Exactly what i thought...i wasnt even born when this video was recorded, but i do enjoy 80-mid 90's cheer routines more...it does need more techniques to pull today's cheer routine, but there are too many things happening at the same time, that it seems so crowded and is not pleasant to watch 😆😆😆

This is the best video I've seen in ages. Good ole fashioned cheerleading/dance. I love tumbling and acrobatics, but looser more fluid movement is more appealing to watch...but boy did pyramid formation take a lot longer back then. Thanks for the post.

They were being safety-conscious. And, after all, safety consciousness _Is_ the ultimate health awareness!

I didn't know cheerleaders were this decent in 1980...haha. But it's crazy how much cheerleading has evolved. The stunts and tumbling are like 10 times harder these days
@bambisister0026 жыл бұрын
Ashley Reina uhm have you seen the video?? There are some amazing stunts there and the one guy's tumbling was really good. Sure the style is a little different but it doesn't look easy👀

I remember a stand-up comic named Skip Stephenson who remarked how cheerleading had changed since _he_ went to high school (presumably in the Sixties). "Back then, our cheers went 'Strawberry shortcake; Suzy Q! Come on, team, we're rooting for you.' Nowadays, though, the cheers are much more intimidating. I heard one inner city squad chant 'Ungowa! Soul power! You'll all be dead within an hour.' " 🤣🤣🤣

Sadly, Mr. Stephenson passed away thirty-one years ago...when he was only 52. 😞
