Acrosport

• Acrosport is an acrobatic and cooperative sport practiced with a partner or group through a combination of figures and human pyramids, transitions between figures, and choreographic elements like dance, gymnastic skills, and acrobatic jumps
• In Acrosport, there are different roles: base, top or agile, and helper
• Base role: responsible for supporting other people in the figure (agile or top) based on strength, stability, and balance
• Agile or top role: the person who climbs up on a base to create a human figure, expected to be agile, active, quick, and self-confident
• Helper role: responsible for helping teammates compose the figure, focusing on teammates' needs and being an active and self-confident person
• Safety measures in Acrosport:

  • Only two zones to support a top: shoulders line and hip bone line

  • Check the base's stability
  • Avoid stepping directly on the base's back
  • Avoid jumping while climbing up or descending from the base's back
