Scoring Vs Judging

[Atwood, Mark]

???  If I pull a quarter loop...1/2 roll on the up line, I can then push OR pull, and I'll have a pull for a quarter loop back to level upright flight back along my flight path.  Use a stick model...I think you'll see it works.  Same for the quarter roll up...can push or pull over the top, just have to remember which way to roll on the way down...

Mark,

WhatIS defined in the Humpty Bump with Options description is "quarter loop to 
verticle. A push would be somewhat difficult from upright, low in the box. You 
can Push or Pull at the top. But again, if you Half Rolled up and then Pushed 
at the top, recovering to level flight in the right direction would be 
impossible.
