Flying the new sequences

It is a tough maneuver to draw correctly in the sky. That's why it is in at the level I guess. In FAI they throw in a couple of 1/2 rolls to use up your 45 degree lines.
On a different subject. Is anyone finding it hard to present the reverse knife-edge after the top hat in masters this year?

It sounds pretty tricky. If the first radius on the push is not the "right amount" the line length/cross is bunged.
Like the figure M, it is merciful there are only 10 points to lose!

A golf ball is more akin to the current P-05 "Goldfish" standing on end. An ice-cream cone has much steeper sides and ends in a point at center. The golf ball has a cross-over point at center of the two straight 45 degree equal length lines.
FAI describes it as - Golf ball from top: Push to a 45 degree downline, pull through ¾ of an inside loop to a 45 degree upline and push to recover upright.
Regards,
Eric.

The golf ball should really be named the ice cream cone, but it wouldn't fit on the call sheets easily. In this case it's a 45 degree downline, a 1/2 loop, a 45 degree upline back to center. Now help me with a spring coil!!!!

Maybe 270 degrees 3/4 loop, not 180 deg half-loop?
