try this website: www.myhappydance.com and click on gymnastics - practice/competition link. They have something called leostay strips and some other kind of roll-on that's supposed to help your leo not ride. My dd hasn't tried this yet but I know you're not alone! Good luck!

10.0 carries the glue and the strips. Also, most stores that carry cheerleading supplies has these adhesive strips too. I have heard of gymnasts using hairspray to keep the leos in place.

spray adhesive you can get at a craft store. kind of sticky but works. We called it "booty glue!"

I've always used Elmers gluesticks. They work just fine and are much cheaper than the specialty products on the market.
