Doug, I agree. Watching this video, it confused me a lot:

Perhaps I do not know nothing about snap rolls, but, I hardly believe that maneuver number four, the upline snap, is really a snap roll !!

Regards


I would have given him a zero on most of his snaps if I was judging.

Doug, I think that's the reason the "big boys" don't want the likes of you and I judging them. You call snaps like I call the corners/turnaround maneuvers. You either did or you did not! Everette

No snap in the ½square loop a zero, and he were finished way to soon with the half roll in the ½ loop in figure M - max score should have been 5-6

I have something in common with Christophe that makes my happy, he always rolls right when he has the option. Also the first roll in the reverse rolling is to the right. Even he goes right on the first spin. I wish that I get similar scores ....... :-)

I find it a while were snap-roll maneuver is no longer in the expected standard of sportsmanship.
Same execution will likely to result too different score which is to be effected by Human factors. (Pilot rank, others executions etc)
I think this maneuver execution as well as its' Judging notes should be reviewed by Sub-committee.

He did not preform a snap roll on the vertical. It was a fast full roll, with a touch of rudder at best.

Im no judge, but Id have to think that the downgrade should be severe on that one. 5-6 point scoring.
