Flying has NOTHING to do with weight. I am 105 and I am a flyer. There are people who are LIGHTER than me that are my base. The reason they aren't flyers is because they aren't balanced and they are too scared. You have to be brave, very balanced, and have confidence in yourself and your base. Your base has to be strong and you have to trust them. It will take some practice to get balance but it helps. Flyrs should NEVER be over weight and should NEVER EVER try to be under weight. It's not worth risking your health to be a flyer.

Girls on high school teams can usually weigh up to 140-150 lbs, with an all girl stunt group. The weight depends on the strength of the bases, and also sex (male or female). Some college teams set a weight of 110 or sometimes lower!

you can be any weight unless your trying out for the dallas cowboy cheerleaders or anything like that.But if you said you weigh too much you can't be a flyer and you would probaly be a good base or backspotter. With gymnastics you can do cartwheels or easier things like that. Im on a cheerleading team and there is a heavy girl on our team. But you must be able to jump and touch your toes. Just try out the worst they can say is no.It all depends on how heavy you are

You can do a cheerleading routine with almost ANY number of cheerleaders. It helps to have at least 5, but four will do just fine. You just need to have two bases, a flyer, and a spotter, and that's pretty much it. good luck!
