description Thigh Stand Overview
A thigh stand is a cheerleading stunt in which a flyer stands on the supported thighs of one or more bases. The bases create a stable platform with their legs and use hand grips to help the flyer balance, while a spotter may assist depending on the setup. It is generally taught as a beginner-level mount, but safe execution still depends on trained participants, coordinated timing, and a controlled dismount.
