List of cheerleading jumps

They are often performed within cheerleading routines to add visual interest, meet a given competition's requirements, and/or score well.

Basic jumps teach the fundamentals of jumping techniques, proper arm positioning, timing, and safe landings; examples include the "Spread Eagle" and "Tuck Jump".

[2] More advanced jumps demand more flexibility, precise technique, and body control; examples include the "Pike" and the "Toe Touch".

[1] In most competitions, jumps are categorized under "tumbling" and judged based on two key aspects: difficulty and execution.

Jumps are often performed in combinations to improve a team's score.
