FLY HIGH - SET ROUTINES
Set routines will be performed to a panel of judges by 4 or 8 Aerialists at the same time. Judges will score each performer based on the below judging criteria which will select the finalists who will then compete again to place in the top 3. The amount of entries in each age/ability will determine how many rounds the aerialists need to compete to get to the final round.
Ability: Please select your ability based on the videos and guidelines below. You can move up an ability level but once you have competed in that ability you cannot move down. Your ability levels may differ between aerial apparatus (example you may be beginner in hoop and intermediate in silks). You do not need to automatically move up if you won, only once your skills and ability progress suit a better guideline.
Judging Criteria:

Reminder: These video feature real students who are currently progressing through their aerial training journey and have generously volunteered their time to support the Fly High community. The purpose of these videos is to showcase choreography and musicality, and while the performers are still refining their technique, their strength, dedication and enthusiasm are truly inspiring to us all. We would like to take the opportunity to personally thank Niamh, Jade, Arabella & Rosie for their hard work.
