Nats Judging Rebate-keep their best SCORE!

[Joe Lachowski]

First, there is no 1/4,1/2,1/4 roll  from inverted in the proposed  Masters 
sequences. There is a 2/4  pt reversed from inverted and a slow roll from 
inverted to inverted, however.

Don't forget there is a triangle loop in one proposed Advanced that has a 
full roll in it that is basically flying a full roll from inverted to 
inverted. Just practice it as a slow roll up at a higher up safe position. 
There may not be clear cut inverted exits and entries but there are some 
segments that involve working from the inverted position(ie - Bunt w/1/2 
roll, 2 outside loops, 6-sided outside loop, and Figure M w/1/4 rolls come 
to mind in the proposed  Adv. sequences)

I wouldn't worry about it. I think people are having a knee jerk reaction to 
things without thoroughly analyzing what is there. Besides, I thought 
everyone new how to fly inverted<g>.
