Masters 2005 Options

[John Ferrell]

Now that we have had a little experience with the 2002-4 rules it would be a really good time for some one outside  the committee to evaluate the impact (positive & negative) of what we did. Of course I have my own opinions. I cannot believe all of the changes rated 10's! 

Then again, would it serve any purpose?

  John, I appreciate a LOT you putting it in print.  Don't think I've seen it summarized as well or concisely...
      There are MANY who will press that the sequences are to be "building blocks" to some ultimate goal of complexity and par-level competitiveness with the FAI trends.  THAT I don't agree with.
      I particuarly like the criteria about "judgeable by available judges" - that is SO important....as Troy pointed out, the more difficult and "new" you make maneuvers, the more "judging load" is placed on - Guess Who? - *US*....If there's a reasonable purpose to that, I'm all for it, but I don't read much in terms of justifiable rationale for making sequences more difficult.
      Anyone know the REAL answer? (this is also related to the core question I've had - "WHY a 5kg UPPER limit??")
