What is the move in cheerleading called when you’re in a circle or a line, and someone does a back tuck?

Question by Kuni: What is the move in cheerleading called when you’re in a circle or a line, and someone does a back tuck?
My squad wants some cool, non-stunting things to do at halftime–so we found this move online when you’re squad is either in a line or circle, holding eachother at the elbows and the person between you and your fellow squad member does a back tuck. Obviously one at a time. But what is this called? And how do you do it? We were trying to figure it out today, but couldn’t. Also, any cool, non-stunting things we could do? Thanks so much! 10pts for the right answer!

In high school we just called it our tuck line. There isn’t a name in general for it…
How you do it…
Line up in a straight line or circle see example below

okay so the o’s are the people that DO NOT FLIP. The X’s are actually holding the o’s shirts or each others arm 9(high on the arm) the o’s hold hand behind the o’s backs the o’s and the x’s help the 1 o that is flipping get around.
I would HIGHLY suggest going to a all-star gym and doing this ONLY ON MATS! This is dangerous and I would hate to see your school end up on the news…. Be very careful!

Good luck to you and you squad, remember SAFETY FIRST and if you don’t feel comfortable doing the skill, DON’T!
