[NSRCA-dist7] Clarification on FAI maneuver 1

[AtwoodDon at aol.com]

I agree with your approach with the inverted portion of the 2 of 4 being  
equal to the knife edge.  If the inverted section was not equal, then it is  not 
really a 2 of 4.  
 
My understanding is that the geometrically, the maneuver is a square with  
half loops on either end.
 
Since I don't judge FAI, let's hear from those that do.  What are you  
looking for and why?

Hey all you judges out there - and those that  know.
 
I just want to verify that on the double M, the first  FAI maneuver, after 
the 2 of 4, there is NO LINE PRESENT when inverted (this  is the 2nd point of 
the 2 of 4) - so basically you fly knife edge, roll to  inverted and push 
immediately. Is this correct? Is this how it will be judged?  Also, it's to be 
presented as a square with rounded ends -  correct?
 
Personally, I like to fly it with the same length knife  edge and the same 
length inverted, basically showing the 2 of 4, then push to  the 1/2 outside 
loop - but I do not think this is how it's described or being  judged - so I'd 
just like to know what the judges are looking  for.
 
Thanks
 
Scott
