Scores for landings

[kvelez at comcast.net]

  The cuban 8 should be a 1/2 cuban as a turn around instead of the 180 turn and yes is a sin per the current rules, but take that out and just go with the guy with the perfect landing and the guy that had the 1/2 a dozen bounces, who should get the 10 and who actually gets it. Per the new rule both get the 10 but to me, speaking for me only, is not fair. If I can perform a perfect landing  and score better why give a 10 to anything less than perfect. Most critical times are T/O and Landings, now how are we going to learn perform the maneuver properly if there is no motive (not even addressing safety). As far as the time savings on the landing sequence there is other ways to address it without messing with the scoring. Just my opinion.
