1 – 200 of 272 Newer› Newest»AW! we should ALL go to it! every team! and have a big old pot luck after. or a big brawl?...witch ever
the links aren't working mark... its gonna be fun seeing a bunch of pep flag teams experience a new style of camp/clinic for a change... and its free so thats already a good deal!
right! will we all have our new girls by then though?
Well by making it by June 6th, people are just assuming teams will have their members, but if not, the veterans could always just come and learn the material!
This seems like such a great idea, and I think ALL the teams should go and collaborate.
The thing about this is, it's free, that should be the cherry on top. I will try to get the word out, and Schurr is 5 minutes from our school anyways!
I hope all the teams can make this!
anyone can show up to this?
who is teaching the class?
The links should be working now...
If they do not, please don't hesitate to let me know! I'll update them.
queen mark will probably be ruling the classes.
what else is new?
good! then that means the routines are gonna be bomb!
it means we wont be wasting our time if we go! mark everyone here is jelous! it was your choreography that won nationals this year!
Shouldn't the choreography come from the team itself?
What's the point of a team competing if they can't make their own routine?
I'd rather see a team lose with dignity and their own work, than win with arrogance and someone else's work.
We're not here to talk about nationals, thats in the past. We're here to talk about an opportunity for all the pep flag teams to get together after a long haul during comp season and just have fun!
finally more videos
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OUU3KZikUg
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6cqc_TAeKg
fun might be a foreign concept for some of the people here.
Can someone post videos of any other team besides Channel Islands? Not to be rude, they did perform two award winning routines, but I am tired of seeing them over and over on the message boards. Somebody please post other great routines so that we have a variety!
it's all up to supporters/alumni/coaches/teams to upload their videos.
can anyone post up channels christmas routine from classics?
is it weird that CI 2006 is my favorite routine of all time? i know they didn't win, so it got looked over. but holly crap what great music and use of their white flags.
its not weird. i love that routine and music as well. it just wasn't as sharp as other ci rotuines that's why it was looked over.
and will c.i. be going to this "camp"? i know they tend to only rear their snobby heads during competition season.
i think i'm taking them to this "camp.." its free and summer camps are too expensive for the girls... so you'll see our "snobby heads" there for sure...
so channel is snobby now...guess its better than being sluts like bishop or ghetto dark like carson.
CI has the RIGHT to be SNOBBY... they did BEAT all the teams at nationals and MS drill... hello bragging rights... so fucken what?
ci isnt snobby. they're poor. that's why they can't go to camps. and if they are snobby.. they should be. no camp, started out looking like garbage, and now they beat everyone!
get'em poor snobs!
and you have a right to be sore jealous loser coz the "poor snobs" beat your ass.
who gives a flying fuck if ci is "too poor" for camp?
... if camp was so so, how come some other teams that do go to camps still suck! seriously?
you people don't even know ci, bishop, or carson (unless your low life spied on their asses)
you fuckers take this shit on another level. there should be a category called "Best Pep Flag BS" i know you FAGGOTS would win.
stop hating on people because they don't have the money for certain things. and just because bishop girls dress like that and do certain things, doesn't make them sluts. stop assuming with things and get on with your lives.
i hope nothing goes down at this clinic, unless everyone is fake.
well bishop probably wont go. glen is a sharp instructor and I'm sure that's a conflict of interest. not to mention the girls might be out casts do to all the shit talking.
well if that's the reason bishop doesn't do that's stupid.
they all should be going to usa anyway.
i don't understand how they became staff for sharp.
can anyone join?
i don't understand why anyone would turn this FREE opportunity to help themselves out.
all the shit talking here is most likely done by supporters or alumni anyway.. i bet the actual squad members don't even look at this dumbass site. they're smart enough to know this is nothing but bullshit.
everyone should go and get a head start for the summer. plus.. you can get a sneak peak at other teams.
good point!!
how fun would it be if everyone went? everyone would be to bust dogging each other out to get anything out of it.
does anyone know which teams ARE going to go?
are you guys really going to assume that's why bishop is not going to this camp? or are you guys just trying to make an excuse for them? so many pathetic low life people on this site. anyways bishop has their new team already and i heard they are going. so does anyone else know what other schools are going?
bishop can't go. we're going clubbing the night before so we'll all be drunk and puking from the date rape drugs.
hahaha... i will admit ^^^^^^^ that was funny.
he'll id rather go clubbing =] its only one day anyway? what can you learn in a day? universal twirls?! ha fuck you low lives
lmao yeah bishop i say you girls go clubbing instead. i do agree what are you going to learn from that one day trial....cheesy routines? hello watch the videos on youtube. NOT WORTH IT! save your gas or simply use it for the club since your guys are such party girls...oh im so jealous of you guys just like everyone else on here who keeps on bringing it up. i guess people cant over things. party on bitches!!!!
eff the camp no one should go! i agree its a waste of time... work on your routines for next yr people... itll only be fake 'friendship' anyways
although if you really love this sport why would you not go? It just shows how much some people are just here to talk shit. You can speculate all you want about people not showing up, but it's not your place to say anything. All i can say is that people whom really like this sport will show up, and those whom can't will just bitch because a) they're like 30 or b) some stupid gay groupie.
I hope everyone that shows up is just as excited to be there, my team and myself just plan to have a great time.
.Ci is going
.Bishop too
.LBP will prolly be there.
.Bell will go
.Morse is too flaky so who knows
.Carson wont go if CI is there
.Narbonne SHOULD go (I like them)
.Temple City probably wont know about it
.Hoover might be there
.C-Vally could, they used to go to camp
.Camarillo probably will too
.San Pedro... i'm honestly not sure
.Arcadia... are they still alive?
.Glendora might go.
these are just some comp. teams too. all in all, it seems like something you wouldn't wanna miss. can you go if you're not on a team?
ci and poly probably are going cause usa is ci and poly alumni.
bishop probably won't go because sharp staff are against usa because usa is actually good.
carson won't go because they are stuck up.
narbonne SHOULD go because they need their groove.
morse won't go because if they can't afford nationals, they can't afford this free clinic.
people are dumb. don't go if you expect the worst or the absolute best.
you should go into this HAVING FUN not acting like dumbasses.
people are trying to have fun in the pep flag community as well as being the best. and its the beginning of the team year too, so you can't expect to do much. people are dumb.
how can you say carson is stuck up when you don't even know the girls? have you talked or tried to get to know them?
OK your trying to say USA is actually good?? Is that why majority of the pep flag teams go to Sharp? Thstobviously answers my questions! We all know that we look forward to Sharp camp because of it's Sunday competition and that because most of the best and top teams are there. And honestly being in this pep flag world...I've never heard or ever been to any BIG CAMP event that USA has tried to offer.
ITS CUZ SHARP IS CHEAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
USA IS PROFESSIONAL WHICH MEANS IT'S MORE EXPENSIVE. THEIR STAFF HAVE ACTUAL UNIFORMS, ALL MEALS ARE INCLUDED FOR THE SQUADS, THE MEMBERS ACTUALLY WORK OUT AND LEARN BASIC TWIRLS AND TRICKS BASED ON THEIR LEVEL OF SKILL.
IF YOURE WONDERING WHY USA ROUTINES ARENT THAT GREAT ITS BECAUSE THE TEAMS THAT SHOW UP AREN'T EXACTLY ELITE, SO THE CHOREOGRAPHY HAS TO BE WATERED DOWN SO THEY CAN ACTUALLY DO IT AND LEARN HOW TO TWIRL CORRECTLY.
AND SPECTATORS ARENT ALLOWED TO WATCH UNLESS ITS THE FIRST DAY (WHEN TEAMS SHOWCASE THEIR OWN ROUTINES) OR THE LAST DAY (WHEN TEAMS SHOWCASE WHAT THEY'VE LEARNED). SPECTATORS BEING THERE RUINS THE ENVIRONMENT AND MAKES THE WHOLE THING SEEM LIKE AN OPEN CLINIC RATHER THAN A CAMP.
AND SHARP'S CAMPS ARE AT A HOTEL, USA'S ARE ON ACTUAL UNIVERSITY CAMPUSES. THAT IN ITSELF GIVES THE ENVIRONMENT THE SCHOOL SPIRIT FEEL. AND PLUS.. THE SQUADS AREN'T ABLE TO GET DRUNK WITH EACHOTHER IN THEIR HOTEL ROOMS.
PEP FLAGS MAY BE BIGGER IN SHARP AS OF NOW, BUT HOPEFULLY THAT WILL CHANGE. YOU CAN OBVIOUSLY SEE THAT ALL THE ELITE SONG AND DANCE AND CHEER TEAMS (ALL STAR TEAMS AS WELL AS COLLEGIATE) GO TO USA CAMPS. IT SEEMS TO ME AS IF THE PEP FLAG SECTION OF USA IS GETTING THE SHIT END OF THE STICK FOR PRETTY MUCH JUST BEING BETTER AND MORE PROFESSIONAL.
SO GO AHEAD, GO TO SHARP. YOU WILL GET YOUR MONEY'S WORTH, SINCE IT'S CHEAP ANYWAY. PLUS ALL THE ALUMNI CAN GO SPY ON YOU AND WATCH YOU GET DRUNK IN YOUR HOTEL ROOMS.
as far as i know, we go to sharp camps because theyre way cheaper than USA.. if we had the money, we'd go to USA's camp of champs which i heard has a competition and the only people that are allowed to go are the teams that made it to finals this previous season.. but i must admit USA routines sucked circa 2002 but ever since that guy mark too over, its been great i heard... ive seen the advanced routines he taught at camp..
everyone just shut up and go. even if we're all fake its still gonna be a really good event to go to.
and i would like to ask the question that someone asked earlier, can you go if you're not on a team or out of high school.
call the usa office. i think you can, you just have to register.
and ps: people say carson girls are stuck up because they never try to stay after and congratulate the other teams. they just storm off whenever they don't get the first place trophy.
they will not be going to the clinic probably. i think it will only be ci because king mark is on usa.
i love that you guys call him king mark because he is king mark....don't be sad that you cant be better than him.
thats not a good reason not to go?
King mark my ass y do u people praise him so much?
because he will eat you if you dont. NOM NOM NOM. GET IN MA BELLLAYY!
ci isnt the only one going... poly's going too...
are you implying mark is fat? because i know hes big and all but it still isnt nice to call someone fat! it might hurt his feelings

nationals finals!!! =D
long beach poly peppers at finals!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUFT7AM2gM8
can someone please upload monte vista from nationals!
so... how are tryouts going?
bishop has 18 girls!
how could you know that?
i heard that channel has a regular team consisting of 9 girls and a mini team consisting of 5 girls...
is this true?
how can any of you know any of this? lets hear from the teams themselfs. all these rumors are dumb.
i heard san pedro has a mini team of 3 girls, a medium team of 6 and a large of 9. they also do song and pom like Glendora....... HAHAHAHAHAHA
all i know is bishop is going to WIN this year. yeah, they'll even win at this free clinic thing, even though there is no competition. because they're THAT good.
even if they don't show up to the clinic (which they probably will flake) they will win.
go bishop. you guys are 2nd place winners! also known as first place losers.
what the fuck is that suppose to mean? first place losers?? LMFAO you idiots crack me up. shows how many low life people there are in this pep flag community. you people here should open up a division where all you guys do is talk shit. and now i think that would be a tough division to judge since thats all you losers do and are so good at it.
pedro doesn't even have a team yet because at my school they made an announcements for eighth graders who are plannng to go to pedro next year can tryout for short flags jv and varsity i think either today or next week
arcadia is alive.
will they be at the clinic?
i hope oxnard has a team next year!
oxnard 06-07
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvmjmV6-S40
1:33
ci?
if oxnard did it in 06-07 and ci did it in 09, then OBVIOUSLY oxnard did it first. ci thinks they are so creative, but they steal stuff too.
and oxnard steals from ci, so they're even.
i think if more schools developed there own style of twirling instead of copying each others moves, this sport would be more intense and channel would not be winning every year.
bishop did that toss pass in 2006 singles routine as well. 3 are all of the same concepts but all 3 are different, except that big toss from the ends.
all ARE different. that's what choreography is. an inspired work of performing art.
but if you want to know where I got the concept from, where i was INSPIRED, making one long exchange over smaller exchanges (or a trick, in the case of 2009) then you have to look at our 1-flag in 2001.

anyway, hope to see all teams at this free clinic!

mark, i was on your side until you said that "choreography is inspired art" when you completely ripped it off and didn't even execute it up to par to bishop.
but hey, we can all expect another witty comeback so you can defend yourself.

may SEEM like an ordinary ripple, but NOT if you do it after another team has BEEN doing it for the past 3 YEARS!

thank GOD you changed it before nationals..
at least everyone can admit to stealing.. you gotta act like you do everyone else's shit better, so it's ok.
are you running out of ideas, mark? the '09 team DID look a lottttt like the oldies teams. hmmmmm. well at least they were FINALLY SORT OF KIND OF CLEAN.
trust me. he hasnt run out of ideas. wait till you see the ladies and gentleman next year. twirkanometry modern for sure.
there's a guy on CI's team now? :D
yeah, we get it. CI is always quick to claim their fame, and always quick to defend when they jack shit. i bet you years from now they will try and claim that they had the first male twirler!
too bad that ordinary ripple was the trend in the 90's even carson and CI and narbonne used to do it... its also unfortunate how bishop's ripple isnt even that strong... GOIYSB (figure it out)
props to meekis! Mark u better give him a big ol hug.
you guys... short flags has been going on for a long long long long long long long long long time. what ever you think is original was probably done by another team a years ago... probably by a team you would least expect.
example being "Carson" flower.
Channel islands and Oxnard short flags probably wouldn't even be around if Camarillo and Ventura High didn't have a team first.
this isn't bashing, this is just informative. its impossible to be 100% original. CI spirit is still in every routine they bring to the competition floor. same with Bishop, same with Carson, and every team...
I wanna see what teams would do without choreographers...
Isn't that the point of having a team in the first place? To foster creativity in students and showing they can lead each other?
Don't get me wrong, Mark and the other coaches have done a fine job, but why not let your kids try it out on their own? Would not placing first cripple your post-high scholl aged egos? There is an entire world out there outside of high school...
which is why long beach poly is the SHIT for whooping ci's ass in at 08 nationals!
boring as fuck, but clean as carson captain's plate after dinner!
no coach needed!
which makes morse bomb too!
ok... so why did you have to add carsons captain to a clean plate? That is so wrong. Personal attacks against an individual is just petty. If you wanna throw low blows, dont make them personal... but rather the whole team. or how about not at all :)

i just hope Long Beach Poly does not become a Bishop Montgomery.
It's a Carson & Channel Islands Decade
2000 and previous has always been Narbonne & Channel Islands grabbing usa nationals titles... But nationals were never the primary titles to win because ms drill was the most important and its hype began to fade in 2003.
hate on carson and channel islands all you want because they are the supreme denominator in today's decade.
Carson 2009, i accidentally put champs
*my mistake
it's fucked up how someone brought up carsons captain. what grade are you in? did you even graduate high school? apparently, you have not.
if you reply saying " i got a degree on..."
you know what, you don't deserve it and i hope people surrounding you start treating you like shit because your a piece of shit floating in a public toilet.
..."mark, i was on your side until you said that "choreography is inspired art" when you completely ripped it off and didn't even execute it up to par to bishop.
but hey, we can all expect another witty comeback so you can defend yourself."
i don't need a witty remark. how about just the truth?
here's a link for you...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSlFUOka_kY
check out the back middle... at about 0:10 seconds. or look one either side. there's 5 assisted toe touches for you, done in 2007 by our coed dance team. one of the other teams i coach at CI. but you shouldn't need a video to claim something.
i don't claim an assisted toe touch nor do i give bishop the right to claim it either. dance and cheer teams having been doing them for years.
right on.
mark you don't have to defend yourself at all, people are just trying to get to you. you're choreography inspires and captivates not only short flags audiences but all spectators. everyone will always get nervous when they hear channel islands name being called to the floor.
the only problem i have with CI is the girls portray their confidence as arrogance at competitions. lets work on those attitudes girls.
another way to prove that mark is indeed better than us. all hail queen mark lord of lard!
how about the REAL truth.
BOTH BISHOP AND CI SUCK AT TOE TOUCHES.. "assisted" toe touches are the best they can do... even if they look retarded and sloppy, leave them alone.
did you also invent the wheel mark?
mark shut up.
you didn't create everything.
and the fact that you need to prove yourself just makes you even more insecure and fat. i mean, dumb.
stop worrying about what other people think and worry about your girls. if you focused on your girls as much as you focus on a honey baked ham, you guys would be cleaner than captain carson's finger lickin' chicken bucket.
stop trying to defend yourself, it makes you look pathetic.
Mark isn't defending himself!
sticking up for yourself doesn't make you look pathetic! sticking up for your team makes you look strong! it makes you look like you genuinely care! Right now it makes you look like an idiot
Pathetic is defined by your announces insults and childish name calling. you're a joke.
Mark is right! Cheer and dance teams have been doing that toe touch assist for many years. It was just bound to end up in the pep flag world eventually. He doesn't claim any rights to it so back off! Look at it this way, cheer started out with thigh stands, dance with kicks and toe touch assists are the exact same. No team can "claim" a move. This is just a pathetic move to try to get you down Mark, stay strong!
hahaha!! smart!! :)
OK, so you're seriously telling me that if another team did a bow and arrow "better" than mark's slaves, he wouldnt stomp around and talk his shit.. about how he started that? or if another team does ponches (or as they call them, "needles") he wouldn't be annoyed? or if another team did a flag-change? since color-guard teams have been doing it for years?
you all need to stop kissing his ass. hes the most arrogant coach out there.. coming on here and trying to compensate for being a hypocrite. i don't see any other coaches on here talking about moves that they "didn't" take from other schools.
it's not even a big deal. MARK HIMSELF makes it a big deal by talking about how other schools take their shit or anyone elses, and trying to make himself look better than everyone by excusing himself from all the things he says about other teams.. because of this or that.
i'm personally tired of it. EVERYONE TAKES MOVES FROM EVERYONE. CHEER, SONG, DRILL, FLAGS, WHATEVER. just stop acting like youre the only one exempt from it cuz you're obviously not.
mark, if someone did a better flag change than you, you would be a little bitch so don't try to act like you wouldn't, because that's bullshit.
everyone steals so stop acting like you don't.
the comment that said "did you invent the wheel" was so true because you act like everything is yours and when someone comments that you have something of bishop's, you throw a bitch fit. a real coach would just suck it up and get over it. people are going to talk shit, but you maintain to back your shit up with more bullshit.
so shut your shit and eat your pot roast. and get the fuck over it.
qtwirl...out!
why is this even going on at all. the season is OVER! unless you don't want it to be?
lets hold a competition after the clinic. no USA judges, no Sharp coaches. no rules or limitations. just brawl it out. we'll just have one judge. how about it? winner=best
this way it would stop all the head aches and childish shit. you all obviously wish you could take it to this level, then why not? don't even act like yall are too classy because i've seen all the talk on this blog.
^^ the season is just starting.. new teams are coming along
the the person that said
"lets hold a competition after the clinic. no USA judges, no Sharp coaches. no rules or limitations. just brawl it out. we'll just have one judge. how about it? winner=best"
you are so stupid!
go to pep flag hell and die!
omg.. is liz and adeste on here? sounds like they hate mark... USA rejects for sure...
everyone shut the fuck up! get over yourselves your moves and your teams and win next year, geez!
So let me get this straight... Now that we are openly saying people steal moves, stunts and tricks etc... from other auxiliary teams such as pom, cheer and dance... no team has the right to be butt hurt or pissed off if another team takes their so called "originality moves?" And when I say that I am referring to the non- tricks and moves that don't involve our sports main direction which is flags.... Right?
So if teams decide to use bow & arrows, pyramids, flag changes, stunts, assisted russians, scorpions etc... no one and no team can get pissed off because those moves have already been introduced by other category teams? Am I right?
Because as far as I have seen... The only advances made to the actual Pep flag division has been Carson's visionary of twirling three flags. And of course the knock off of 4 flags.
Seriously the only interesting concepts in our division today are way to dated... channel islands created two flag, carson created three flag... and I guess narbonne has that ball trick. What I would like to see is our division reinvent itself rather than re-creating other categories with just a flag in our hand and call it pep flag!
"Ladies and gentlemen, your USA Nationals - Most Hated Pep Flag 2009 is Channel Islands"
Congratulations!
so what are all your reasons why you hate channel islands except?
if you all didn't know, pep flag is in the Spirit category so the idea adding cheer elements is a great thing. choreographed phrases make it preppy. needles, scorpions, bow & arrow, etc gives teams extra points for flexibility.
don't hate that channel islands implemented cheer materials and i doubt that their coach claim any of it. the only thing he claims was that oxnard, bishop, and their pass-over partner tricks are all 3 different things but the same concept. people explode once ci coach starts to tell people what influenced his ideas. ci haters are so quickly to judge. maybe because the echo of "Channel Islands Reaching for the Sky Bow to the Champions, CI" is still buzzing from their left and right ears.
sorry that you underestimated ci and they proved your asses wrong.
i recall reading, at nationals i think ci will get 4th or 3rd. well guess what? they won both divisions!
stay sour and stay bitter. fuck your life.
oh best believe I dont hate on mark nor do I the other top coaches such as LIz, Glenn, Dee, and Hamtaro... But now that it is out in the open, Anything that isn't pep flag influenced... They shouldn't be surprised or hating on other teams for using these other "flexible" and "extra point" elements if not for the 2010 season, but rather future ones to come.
Sure Carson introduced 3flag to the scene but nobody does it better than ChannelI slands! They took 3flag and made Carson look like wimps with the typa tricks that CHannel islands do!
you assume like you already know. dumbass.
"They shouldn't be surprised or hating on other teams for using these other "flexible" and "extra point" elements if not for the 2010 season, but rather future ones to come."
temple city had done needles in their routines (even ballet materials). hoover has been doing scorpions/arabesque for quite some time now. even channel islands put scorpion in their singles routine this year during their intro. bishop long beach oxnard carson has been doing toe touches. i don't think coaches will be surprise or will start to hate on other teams because schools have been using them for quite some time now.
One mean thing i have to say: tell San Pedro to start stretching because they are no where near "flexible"
ya right, after carsons captain eats all the food
Ya'll are going to die, Guess which coach is showing up with a new team at the clinic? Maybe things will work out better for this coach at this new school, the girls at this school are committed.
Clue: DING DONG
Hahaha, who? I'm sure the clue is obvious, but i just can't figure it out. I am sure this is an unprecedented occurrence. I wonder if this is going to generate bad blood. If someone can give more specifics I would like to know-
wtf are you talking about?
so i'm gonna die because the new coach at esperanza has dedicated members? i dont get it mom.
that ding dong clue was the dumbest thing ever.
who cares, all that matters is that the clinic will have most of the teams there.
has everyone signed up!
it's coming up soon so hurry up!
oh yeah.. about the ripple... channel islands probably did it before ANYONE else...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtTgPt1lWFg
look at about 1:28...
people are so stupid. they look in the present to judge rather than the past.
So Esperanza gained a coach from another school?
The clue "ding dong" referring to Bell ?
you're right bitches! bell will bring it to the top and win nationals 2010! we would've won in 2008 if we didn't learn our routine the day before, because we caught long beach poly spying on us and they stole our routine so we had to change it.
and in 2009, we saw mark driving away after we got out of practice.
so basically, the past two years, the national titles belong to us.
even if your routine was "long beach" you execution would have still sucked!
even if mark spied on you, your execution would have still sucked!
even if your routine was to narbonne's music, your execution still sucked!
national titles as in "and your last place goes to..." of course it belongs to you!
stop making excuses to make your school look good, bell. and even if those things were actually true, the national title wouldn't go to you.
i'm pretty sure that if teams do spy on each other.. the last team they would want to spy at would be bell.. well not unless they wanted a good laugh
who ever wrote that about bell its not true no one from the team ever wrote or ever wrote anything to disrespect anyone, it must of been someone who dislikes us. my girls would never write something like that.
what ever happened to the video tutorials that we used to talk about?
does anyone remember the result at west torrance 2005 & 2006?
is it against the rules to post who is going to be going?
i don't find it against any rules to post who is going.
Channel Islands is going to attend this clinic.
Who else is going?
remember all, it's queen mark who makes the rules
ya i wonder who else is going. i wish i could go. boo.
im going with my team =)
i think queen anonymous rules the land since most of the postings here are posted by the Anonymous royal family.. just thought i'd mention that...
who is the royal family?
you people are freaks.
poly' going...
stop the bashing its a free clinic it will help ALL teams!! nationals is done and over with lets get out of the past and move forward... and as for mark he is a great instructor.
MOVE ON PEOPLE!!!!
i think it's only fair to warn bishop montgomery and san pedro that attending USA events prior to competition season will NOT earn you brownie points with the judges. this isn't sharp. you do not pay for your 1st place trophies. nor will you earn 4 foot tall trophies for being the largest squad at the clinic.
thank you.
bishop is coming.
and we're winning.
no matter what.
we will dominate any team.
in size of squad.
in level of skanks.
in twirling ability.
in piercings.
if you try to battle us, we will pounce you, and win.
if not, we will settle for second, like we always do.
i think if more schools developed there own style of twirling instead of copying each others moves, this sport would be more intense and the battle for the national title would be better than ever! Good luck to everyone at Schurr HS. Remember to have fun and learn and share your wonderful talent!
Cha Cha out!
so i heard carson and bishop arent going...
figures... lol
narbonnes out. they dont even have a team yet
San Pedro is going with their untalented 19 member J.V. team and 8 member varsity. Looks like they're trying to be the new Bell.
They're not going to do very good this year.
are you really sure about that?? 'cause you never know.
San Pedro has mostly bad returnees. Many who have clutsy drops, others who just can't twirl. Good luck to these ladies. They may have talent, but they don't have enough to keep up with CI, Carson, and Bishop.
and long beach poly! :)
i think all the members of teams have the talent or else they wouldnt be on the team right? i mean twirling flags takes a great amount of practice to get at the higher levels.
how do you know bishop and carson is not going for sure, also how do you know san pedro has 19 on jv and 8 on varsity and that they are going for sure. unless your on USA staff and somehow took a look at the registration forms that were turned in. hmmmmm makes me wonder, so is there an anonymous shit talker from USA staff on here? looks like there is!
is there like a roster mark/jonas? i hope allot of teams signed up.
so fucken true lol. someone on here is bout to get caught it in their shit talking. just narrow it down to who is on usa. you dumb fucks just got caught slippin'!
or it could be someone that "befriended" san pedro. bishop perhaps?
you guys need to get your shit together.
people on staff don't know who is coming yet. probably only the registration staff know.
unlike sharp, usa is legit and not bootleg.
you idiots should know, it's the usa comp that matters.
Sharp matters... not as much, but if you win at sharp its still a legitimate win.
Really- Sharp is a joke. I look at it as more as a practice competition.
but you said your self it is STILL a competition.
Yeah it does seem like Bishop "befriended" San Pedro! LMAO after all befriend means to make friends or become friendly with. Just like Channel "befriended" Poly.
Second Person above me, why the did you capitalized "still"? I didn't deny or denounce as to not being a venue of competition, I merely stated that it was a joke of a competition. Next time you might want to read the comments before trying to make aversion to make your come up on top.
Sorry to come out in such an abrasive manner, but I don't like others coming out and trying to twist my comments, or misread and then make unnecessary rebuttals.
Learn to read.
there was hardly a rebuttal implied. i was just stating the fact that it is a competition and should be treated like one. loosing at a "joke of a competition" would/should be more embarrassing then loosing at a USA competition. my team wouldn't go to any competition without giving it 100%... as a matter of fact i don't think any team would give anything less then their all just because its SHARP.
I wasn't "trying to come out on top", you shouldnt come onto this site so defensively... or seriously for that matter.
true Carson can go to a SHARP comp and compete against teams like Camarillo, Crasenta Vally, and Hoover and treat it like a joke. but as soon as Channel Islands walks in the door its no longer a joke... they want to win.
Learn to relax. geez
of course it's still a competition.
but when the judging becomes ridiculously unreliable and a bit suspicious (i remember 2 of the judges at sharp gave the exact same score in the exact same categories on my team's scoresheets at TWO competitions) the competition then becomes a joke.. because the placings may or may not be accurate.
i know that placings may be a matter of opinion, but with sharp.. you just never know who they're going to pick. (aka who paid more because they have more squads there)
after all.. bishop does have like 12 girls.. and san pedro usually has two teams.. not to mention coaches who work for them.
at least the judges were smart enough to know who to give first place to last summer.
I agree, with Sharp competitions, it is unpredictable. USA is more fair and the judges judge the actual performance and not just connections.
and usa judges actually have twirling experiences, whereas sharp judges like to just write random shit on the scoresheets so they can just show off at the end of each competition.
sharp staff vs. usa staff this weekend?
not all of the USA "judges" have twirling experience. only one or two. its usually Winnie, or Sonia all of the coaches except for Sonia have previous teams.
Ruben and Glen might belong to Sharp... but Mark, Jonas, Winnie, Denny, qu, and Lillia all (CI and LBP) are on the USA staff. you don't think there is favoritism on USA?
as for the judging, its not hard to judge any competition. you just have to know what makes a good routine. the USA and Sharp score Sheets pretty much have the same criteria for scoring high.
one thing you are all right about it does seem to be all about quantity rather then quality with Sharp. you don't have to qualify for anything to compete. they just "recommend" that you compete at a high school first. its a money making issue.
USA gets payed less but they do it for the love of it more then for the money.
Shut up

favoritism?
maybe if bishop or san pedro were good enough to try out for usa they would make it.
the reason is that lb poly, channel islands, and carson have the elite twirlers that can make the cut. there are some really good girls on bishop, but they are probably forbidden to even think about trying out for usa because they have to keep their sharp dynasty afloat.
viva la sharp bitches!
you people don't know what you're talking about. most of us are too busy caring other people's business instead of our own. what low lives we have =)
WOW are you guys really arguing about this?
And by you guys mentioning USA vs. Sharp are you trying to imply Ruben and Glenn vs. Mark, Winnie, Lillia, Qu, Jonas, and Denny. If there was really some type of battle going on between the two groups then let them fight it out. Because I doubt that there is but you losers on here are trying to make something out of nothing. So just give it up.
Another thing you should all know, Bishop does NOT have a "Sharp Dynasty". They had their previous coaches (Daniel and Loren) work for Sharp 2-3 years ago. Then you have one of their alumni which is Jenny (the girl who runs this site) and their current coach Glenn who I believe still may be working for sharp. I see no dynasty in that. If Bishop really looked up to Sharp in that way wouldn't you think Sharp would have a constant flow of Bishop girls coming in every year?
I come on this site for laughs now!
so the clinic. how about it? fun ya?
yea... who went?
So far I know, alphabetically:
- arcadia
- bell
- channel island
- glendora
- hoover
- LBP
- san pedro
- south pasadena
and bunch of other schools that I don't know.
I can't believe CI has 13 members ..
Seriously ? Those bitches have no chance
Witha team that big ...
Hahaha get ready Carson!
Were taking it home baby!
some of ci's members that attended wont be on the team next year. they just went for the fun of it i'm assuming.
we're looking at allot of potentially good teams i think. San Pedro and Arcadia brought it to the clinic and i think if Adolfo's coach and old caption could bring those girls to an exceptional level.
that was such a fun clinic. the material was okay, the staff were great, and the whole environment was really fun.
i hope my team gets to go to a usa camp this summer!
how many members are on ci's, bishops, and lbp's team?
Carson no just becuase Ci has 13 doesn't mean they can't be good you guys seen them take it with only five so cut that saying get ready Carson you. never know
poly has 5 this year
ci hasn't had tryouts yet. that's what i heard.
ci has 78
ci has 30 guys on their team
i thought poly would have more.
Ci has a trany !
ci are stuck up bitches that day i seen they did not talk to any other girls just because you guys win championships does not make u feel so up there and stuck up you guys are rude to every team out there except to long beach poly you guys are not friendly atall MARK teach your girls how to be respectful not stuck up
the clinic was really fun! it was definitely a great opportunity to meet other teams and see what kind of competition you're up against. A few teams have really grown and improved.
are you sure about ci? do you have proofs or examples?
its only obvious how they eliminate themselves from other groups like they are too good to talk to anyone but lbp other girls were talking to other team members not just to one certain group i thought carson was stuck up but hey lookin at ci that day it shows there true colors i guess they want to talk to those who are at the top like them
you can't just judge a team by what you see. by watching all the teams, ci talked to the teams that talked to them.
lbp has five because they're copyig ci with that "lucky five" just because they won nationals last year. but other then that good job for one of their girls coming in late and learning the routine quickly. luckily she had a captain in her level to teach her the routine.
lbp had a member coming in late who had to learn the routine taught by her captain that was the same level as her? is that what you mean?
fyi you don't know an individual or teams TRUE COLORS until you get to know them. what low lives we have. also, lbp is not copying ci just by having 5 members hoping they will win. you people are ridiculously stupid.
ci is great, no doubt about that but lbp has their own style to stick to rather than "copying" someone else's style to win.
more fyi. ci did not win because judges had sympathy because they had 5, they won because they executed the best. they also lost because of poor execution - not because they had 5! what stupid minds we have.
you guys are so dumb.
all these comments about copying.
you guys are all stupid.
coach from Camarillo here... (sorry Jen i forgot my log in info again >_<")
I thought I was potentially gonna have a decent conversation with Jessica from CI (it got cut short.) You just have to put yourself out there. you cant except anyone to just walk up to complete strangers and start talking about nothing no matter how "elite" they are. it wasn't just CI that kept to themselves.
I thought the camp was extremely fun and exciting. There should be more FREE camps like these! =)
