description Full-Up (Cheer) Overview
A full-up is a twisting entry used in competitive and sideline cheerleading group stunts. During the transition, the flyer completes a full 360-degree twist around the body's vertical axis while the bases and spotters lift or release the flyer into a supported position, commonly an extension. The skill requires coordinated timing, stable grips, body control, and trained spotting, and is intended for experienced stunt groups working under appropriate safety rules.
