    WAG Cheetah Cups

    My DD has worn cheetah cups for the past almost 2 months and they make my DD’s feet smell so bad. She normally doesn’t have issues with smelly feet, but ever since she started wearing them, it has been terrible. Like to the point that we could barely stand to be in the car with her driving to...

    Parents Replacing cheetah cups?

    For those of you who have daughters who wear Cheetah cups, how often do you replace them? My daughter wears them at practice for vault and floor. I think they are about a year old at this point. I suspect we need a new pair! Thanks!

    Parents Question about Cheetah cups

    My dd started wearing Cheetah cups for vault a couple of months ago for heel pain that we are pretty sure is either Severs or tendonitis. (It corresponded with a growth spurt.) We've also done icing, stretching, and massage. It seems to have greatly improved. She say she hasn't really had any...

    Parents Help with sizing for Cheetah cups

    I am looking at ordering Cheetah cups for my daughter who is struggling with Sever's. She wears a 2 1/2 or 3 in tennis shoes. Her foot is pretty slim. It looks like I shouldn't get her an adjustable one- says they are not for youth. Anyone have a guess as to size? I'm thinking a small...

    Parents Question about heel cups

    My dd mentioned some heel pain, but says it's "just from doing front tucks on laser beam, which makes everyone's heels hurt." Still, I'd like to be proactive if possible. I've read on here about heel cups/shoe inserts. Question: do I just pick those up at the drug store, or do I need to make an...

    WAG Heel cups for tiny feet

    DD has very small feet for her age (little kids size 12-13). I got her Tuli's cheetah cups in XS but I think they may still be too big. How snug should they be? Does anyone make a smaller version?

    Parents Heel cups?

    My 11 year old level 6 has been complaining of heel pain lately and her coach told her to get some heel cups. I was searching a googling and I'm not sure exactly what to order? Any advice?

    Parents Cheetah cups at meets

    Hi all. My DD has a bone bruised heel. She has been using a cheetah cup and it is helping a lot. Our competition season starts this weekend and she desperately wants to compete vault and floor (her best events). Can she use the cheetah cup at meets?

    WAG Help - How to size/buy cheetah cups

    My daughter was diagnosed with tendinitis in her Achilles and severs in her right foot. She is in a boot for 2 to 4 weeks and then will need cheetah cups when she returns to tumbling. Do the cups come individually or as a pair? Will she wear them on both feet? How do I know what size to get?

    WAG Rash with the Cheetah Cups

    My DD has developed a rash right where her Cheetah hill cup goes. She has been wearing them for about 4 months now with no problems then last night it is all red and bumpy. I told her to give it a break for a couple of days to see if it goes aways and we will wash the old one and her new one...

    WAG Tuli's Cheetah heel cups

    I'm considering buying Tuli's Cheetah s. Can I remove the heel cups from the ankle brace/sleeve?

    Reducing dependency on heel cups?

    I have been using heel cups (Cheetahs by Tuli's) for the past year, for basically all tumbling and vaulting. Not on beam and didn't matter on bars. I used them for Severs (as thought by doctor, but wasn't too sure), but my physio said it was achilles tendonitis. Either way I have become so...

    Parents Tuli's Heel Cups - One Size?

    Hi, I am new to the forums. My daughter is a level 5 gymnast who has foot pain in the summer - this is the second summer of it. I have purchased her the Tuli's Cheetah Heel Cups and and wondering if anyone has tried the One Size Fits All version? Is it huge or would it fit a child who...

    Odor-free heel cups?

    Okay...kindof gross and embarrassing, but... Does anyone have any tips for keeping Tuli's Cheetah heelcups smelling a little fresher? My dd wears them and she is NOT a smelly kid (she doesn't even need deodorant!) but her heelcups smell FOUL! I have tried sprinkling baking soda in them and it...

    cheetah heel cups for severs

    I just bought the cheetah cup for my DD who has severs. It only affects one of her feet so I only ordered one heel cup but then I got to thinking is it going to hard to wear only one. If she is standing are her feet going to be a the same height? How hard is it to get used to tumbling and...

    Tuli's Cheetah Heel cups

    My dd has been using these for years. She wouldn't vault without them. The problem she's been having lately is that the heel cup is tearing away from the neoprene part. They used to last for a year or two and her most recent pair has only lasted two months. Anyone else have this problem...
