Troy, much as I hate to agree with you :-) this is the answer to most of the 
"judging questions" that I see come up, if you leave an element so vague that 
it requires too much interpretation from the judge you will draw the 
downgrade, sooner or later.  The less you ask from the judge (interpretation) 
the better your scores will be.  We all seem to expect the judging to be 
perfect (I'm guilty), we don't fly perfect, but we expect the judging to be 
perfect, it never will be (the flying or the judging)  Remember, part of your 
job (my opinion anyway) is to make it easy for the judge to see/understand 
that you performed the maneuver correctly, 

My work here is done (flame suit on) I'm outta' here
