DUH Matt, read the description!!

The maneuver description clearly states the maneuver starts with the first 1/8 loop element. It also states that it is completed as soon as the last 1/8 loop element is done and the model is in inverted SNL.....The description doesn't say much about the "SIDES", but down below, in Downgrades, item 5 is clear..."8 sides, etc etc".

In partial rolling and point maneuvers, any rolling maneuvers actually, the ROLL is complete when rolling is finished. Hesitations don't play a role on the last so called point.

In partial and segmented loops like this one, at least based on the downgrades listed, the last "side" is important and must be flown. Then comes a straight line segment before the next maneuver starts....

I've seen one of the guys fly into the TA occasionally, immediately after the eigth side was done, with no discernible line segment between maneuvers. I think that a downgrade on the next maneuver should have been given
