Wrong Maneuver issues

[jed241 at msn.com]

Mark,

Do you think if I did a 1/2 Reverse Cuban 8 after the straight flight back instead of the correct 1/2 Cuban 8 again, the judges might have missed it...Oh, I remember...They marked it zero when I said "oh shoot"...<VBG> I was pretty proud of that scribbled out 8 though...ha...

  I'll go back to my previous statement...I'm a huge advocate of "benefit of the doubt"...which means if I know the manuever they're trying to fly, then it's "recognized" and I would award the downgrade, not a zero.  Lord knows we'd be handing out zeros continuously in sportsman otherwise.  

  I only use the "unrecognizable manuever" zero when it's so bad that the manuever would be a zero if I did recognize it....


  Take the double Weedon for example :) VBG...sorry Tom...couldn't help myself.

    The example below is clearly the wrong maneuver, but what about a top-hat where the pilot does not draw a straight line on the top. It looks just like a Humpty so do you zero for unrecognizable maneuver, or down-grade 2-4 points???

      Yeah but if you 1/2 rolled on the way up, pushed over the top, then no roll would be required on the down leg....




    I agree the issue is that the 1/2 roll must be on the up line, the zero was for a 1/2 roll on the way down, not a legal variation per the rule book.
