2008 Acrobatic Gymnastics National Championships - WOGA Acro

[acrostar100]

im just saying but, cheerleaders aren't nearly as good as people who do acro no offense llamasaur312

[blacksunshine176]

Im an acrobatic gymnast and i have to admit the training is full on but acro is my WORLD i love it so very much its a big passion of mine

[alyraluca]

I'm so jealous, I wanna do that!!!!!!!

[llamasaur312]

Ok I'm a cheerleader and even I have to admit that looks harder 0.o I bet it is to. I don't do sideline cheer but that's what cheer originally for soo like this acro stuff was made for the sole purpose of gymnastics and stuff sovthe 2 are diffrent

[gymnasts222333]

This is amazing

[theDAJshow0001]

LOVEN THE SONG~!

[ihategomez]

you forgot to put any one in endurance in.  grrr. i was endurance.

[PipandRachel]

hey dylan wats the name of the song?????????????

[slightlyshattered]

@PipandRachel Missy Elliot - Bad Man

[Gymnast2603]

WOW Amazing....

[18scotty88]

fs you need to stop comparin cheer to acro and gymnastics they are two completly different sports cheer includes all different types of dance different stunts and they cheer , gymnastics and acro do stunts and tumble and not a lot of dance so stop comparing the two together !.

[ilovehedgehogs1]

ya'll cheerleaders just cant take that they are way better then ya'll.

[xxgymnastjadexx]

i have to agree with laceybre ive done both too and much prefer sports acro its more fun more challenging and better to watch :D x x

[crapandreacathyrosie]

Ok, no offense to all you cheerleaders out there, but that was so much better. Your pyramids are no match for moves like 0:08, 0:46, 1:10, 2:06, and 2:22.  And ok, we know you dance, but a lot of the acrobats are dancing, so... Well, that's just mah opinion. Acrobats look cooler when they flip, too.

[laceybre]

Okay for all you arguing about cheerleading and acro... ive done both, cheer for 8 and acro for 4.

They both consist of gym tumbling and stunts, but acro requires a lot more strength, ALOT.

So, sorry cheerleaders acrobats are better. I quit cheer for acro and I LOVE IT. I'd like to see y'all try to get out there and do it!

[slightlyshattered]

Acro routines are made up of dance, tumbling, and partner stunts.

[FlueFart]

@slightlyshattered Yes that's precisly what Acro rutines are, I go to acrobatic in at lower niveau but it's what it's all about

[relayinage]

MySportsFanatic please get your facts right between cheerleading and acrobatics! yes both activities consist of gymnastics but its same same but different..

[mustlovepinkk]

btw,

i'm a cheerleader and just because they do more flips and shit doesn't mean they're better.

they do things differently so you cant really say theyre better than us

[ilovehedgehogs1]

TAKE THAT CHEERLEADERS

[ilovehedgehogs1]

O MY GOSH I LOVED THAT IT WAS AMAZING

[artic1010]

well i never meant it to go this far so sorry if your offended

[MySportsFanatic]

These gymnasts put cheerleaders to shame! Cheerleaders can't compete with acrobatic stunts!

I spit on them, and commend you.

[Yuri92001]

But yes I agree acro is more interesting to watch, more difficult, and frankly has more of a chance in becoming an olympic sport than cheerleading will EVER hope to. I always enjoy when cheerleaders assert "WE should be in the olympics it could TOTALLY happen".....lol sigh.

[acronerd101]

OMG!!! kyle bloom is AMAZING!!! and maddie! and all the other elites! btw this is a really nice video!!good timing!!

-acronerd101

[artic1010]

well you know what. i dont need to prove my self to u, your probabky just another moody teenage girl that bags on everyone

[slightlyshattered]

Actually, I'm a 22 year old guy, and not moody. So nice try.

[mustlovepinkk]

are you a hott 22year old guy??

[artic1010]

well no need to get nasty....

[slightlyshattered]

Not being nasty, just realistic. I don't think anyone who is featured in this video would appreciate our skills being called "easy." If you can do it, prove it.

[artic1010]

This Whole vid....i can do this baby stuff with my eyes closed

[slightlyshattered]

All right, post a video. Let's see how good you are.

[wuzup221sara]

your probably someone who would be too terrified to even try to do a back bend so leave them alone. "Baby Stuff" ? wow. this is like amazing.

bravo to the gymnists! you guys have real God given talents(:

[acronerd101]

shut up!! no one cares! if they do then dont say it as mean!!RUDE!

[MySportsFanatic]

Of course you can; we all know that in dreams, anything is possible.

In reality though... I think you would crack your neck, multiple times.

[artic1010]

Easy

[slightlyshattered]

Uh... what's easy?

[gymshiv]

she toatally underrotated that arabian double at 2:57 if she hadnt had her teammates behind her she probably would have fallen backwards or sat down.

[iwatchyutube]

OMG 0:53-0:57!

CRAZYYYYYYYYY

this is soo cool i love this sport :D!

[Gothgoddess512]

and this is not in the olympics because....?

[gymshiv]

because AG and RG are, so the gymnastics catagorie is all taken up, but how they can put a pussies sport like footbal in and not this...i have no idea.

[AlwaysOriginalMe]

all the people who are actually doing the stunts are so tiny.. like kidss

[slightlyshattered]

Most of them *are* kids. I'd say the average age of an elite top is 10-16

[Superman11ish]

FREAKISHLY AWESOME

[batesy1234561]

Why doesnt america have any mens 4s or if they do iv never seen them,

[Lovejoyfanatic]

All I do is Jazz,Ballet,Hip Hop & AG Acro-Gymnastic seem so cool but there no studion here :(

[omgcenarox]

omg that's what i train, acro is awesome, i do artistic also, but acro is better for ur joints

[feathertailXkibaluvr]

i did artistic for 9 years quit for 2 years and now im in acro but is artistic really worse 4 u? i meen u'd think acro would b worse, haveing to spport yor top (and if in a trio ur middle 2)

[Lovejoyfanatic]

All acro, Gymnastic or anything is worse even Jazz.

[feathertailXkibaluvr]

wow i would think that...ever!! lol, y though? i meen how is it worse?

[spaz17013]

wow dat wild

[tumblingtyrant250]

2:24 i saw them today! i got to woga! =D its amazing!

[PwnToob]

is acro super bad for your joints?

[slightlyshattered]

No worse than any other kind of gymnastics.

[PwnToob]

but is it not /as/ bad? because artistic seems worse, i heard bars are really bad for you

[PwnToob]

i want to do acrobatics so baddddddd but im probably too old, so ill only be able to do regular contortion :( (depressed)

[slightlyshattered]

How old are you? I started acro when I was 19.

[PwnToob]

wow they let you!? :D

im 15

[slightlyshattered]

Yeah. Of course, I also had a background in gymnastics in high school. Seek out a club that does acro, I'm sure they'd love to have you on the team.

[PwnToob]

ya im trying to find one, but i cant find any that offer acro :( im searching everywhere in my area

[slightlyshattered]

Where are you located?

[PwnToob]

San Clemente, CA. it can be anywhere in orange county CA or san diego CA

[slightlyshattered]

Lol, there are about a million gyms in california that offer acro, but being from Texas, I have no idea how close any of them are. Here are a few:

West Coast Training Center

Aerial Tumbling and Acrobatics

Empire Acrobatic Gymnastics

Acrosports of Modesto

Paramount Tumbling and AcroGymnastics

Realis Acrobatics Gymnastics Academy

There are a ton more. Just private message me if you want more info.

[joee3198]

[slightlyshattered]

Why would they be cheerleaders? They're doing skills cheerleaders can only dream of doing.

[acrofreak]

[eliteacro]

[slightlyshattered]

No one said all the athletes were from WOGA. But, as this is my channel, all my videos are about the WOGA acro team, which I'm on.

[rhianon44]

[slightlyshattered]

[slightlyshattered]

[ilovedancee5]

whats the song called?

:)

[slightlyshattered]

google the lyrics. Not to be rude, but I don't want to risk my video being removed.

[slightlyshattered]

try iTunes.

[gymshiv]

i know a lot of peopl have said this, but it is like cheeleading, except for this is interesting to watch, the girls aren't in danger of looking like sluts, and it's generally more classy with the moves at a higher calibre of quality and proffesion, so... yeah

..... i don't like cheerleading much...

[slightlyshattered]

hah hah!

well said.

[kingdingalingvj]

can u tell me the tune plz, thanx ladds

[hitsugaya1001]

[shortwolf6]

[gagi1963andjeo]

[FlippinTitan10]

"Oh, let me balance on your head."

[StandingBackTuck]

[u3td684b]

[Yarickzz]

I did this to!!! Me and my sis, we were boy and girl duo. We had lots of gold (but that was coz theer were not lots of boys girls duo). I stopt coz my new partner only wanted to play when we were training.. And I had to w8 till next season for a new partner o.O We couldn't do eny competition coz she didn't remember the moves and stuff =/

Well... Good luck and have fun^^
