Mathman said:I agree. I would assume that most falls on jumps occur because you don't get that landing edge down exactly right. So is it really completely rotated?
The only way that it would be clear is the case where the jump is landed properly and then ... oh! I just can't quite hold on after all! Even then, a huge burden on the caller, considering how many points are at stake for that one element.
Totally, but in this respect Joubert is also well loved by the caller because he has had many quads land between a half and quarter turn short but he's very quickly switched all his weight to the free foot and back again on the landing and been given credit for a faulty quad when it should hav ebeen called a triple. I do, however, think that the quad must be so frustrating for buttle because he always (until the landing!) has a perfect jump, and i can't see why it goes wrong for him.
