What all-star group are you with? It's amazing for me to hear how far cheerleading has come in the past 10 years. I was a gymnast who made the switch to cheerleading in high school, and at that time (it's been awhile now), a squad standing tuck was UNBELIEVABLE. We competed coed showcheer at USA & UCA competitions, and the level that is it at today is just unbelievable.
I joined the first all-star group that my city had (again, it was awhile ago but out here in CA we were a little behind Southern Sts.) when I was a Sophomore, and agree that it is a different brand of cheerleading than high school is.
