[NSRCA-discussion] Chapter-5 Going too far now "missed point".

[Adrien L Terrenoire]

The rule for missing points, as I see it, is for multiple points like a 4
point roll, an 8 pt roll, 6 points of a 6 sided loop, etc. When you do a
half roll instead of a point....IT IS THE WRONG MANEUVER!!

Interesting... I just happen to be doing the judging exam and this is one
of the questions they ask to see if you know how to apply the downgrades
correctly :-)
 
In the example given, the pilot missed a point so it's a 5 (or more)
point downgrade as per the AMA rule book (RCA-20)  and also the FAI rule
book (pg 28 5B.4.3.3). 
 
If your suggesting it's a zero because the manouver is flown
"incorrectly" then why do they have this 5 point downgrade at all? 
 
Let's go a little further... If I was judging you at the Nats (I just
might be BTW) and gave you a zero for a missed point would you actually
accept that as being a correct score?  I wouldn't... so you guys are
going to just have to get used to the 5 (or more) downgrade from me.....
unless of course you don't miss the "point" to begin with.
