I have a question about the 3Loop.
I've seen lots of talk about URs this year, and I've always thought that the 3Loop was the easiest to UR, NOT because of the exit edge but because of the entry edge. The slower the momentum going in, the easier it is to do the first 1/2rotation even before the blade leaves the ice. This is even more evident when you try to add a 3Loop in combination, and why(I suspect) many of the
3Loops in combination could be downgraded. You see this to a lesser extent in a slow 2Axle as well. Do the judges take this into account? Is this why there is so much more attention to this jump this year?
Maybe this is why there seems to be disagreement amoung the posters about which jumps are judged UR.
By the way, thanks for all the updates for the GP events. I really like this forum.:thumbsup:
