the it is a snap roll.&nbsp; Some one at some time put in the description of a
snap the requirement of a ptich break.&nbsp; Man has this caused
problems.&nbsp; Now tell me if a plane does a snap roll without a leading pitch
break then what roll was it, axial, nope don't think so.&nbsp; Was it a barrel
roll, nope not that either so low and behold it must have been a snap
roll.&nbsp; We have all set in a judging chair and watched snap manuevers and
we have flown these maneuvers.&nbsp; We can all say that we have seen and or
flown&nbsp;many true snap rolls that did not have a any visible pitch break,
some are judged on our 1 to 10 scale and others at times receive the
zero.&nbsp; In the current Masters sequence the 45 degree downline snap for

&quot;snap&quot;.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A snap is a stalled wing, autorotation
maneuver. Also, the tendency to downgrade snaps because of any line
displacement goes entirely against the physics of what must occur in order for
a real snap roll take happen.&nbsp; I think we should have a rule that most
clearly accounts for the physics of what must occur for it to be a real snap,
or just take them of sequences entirely.&nbsp; And of course, educate judges
and pilots accordingly.&nbsp; Also, when you're a judge, don't be afraid to
zero or severely downgrade&nbsp;a wiffle snap, or whatever is being presented
to you if it's not a real snap. Especially don't be afraid of zeroing snaps
when it's a big name trying to sneak a snap cheat in front of you.</span></font></p>
