Question, was it in 6.0 system to switch the combos? Could X skater have added a toe on his 3 lutz to make it a combo since he lost the quad combo?
Yes, he could have added the 3T to the lutz, assuming he did footwork into the quad, but unlike CoP, there was no benefit in doing so. One element would receive a -.4 deduction as incomplete. Under 6.0, it didn't matter which one because the deduction was the same. Under CoP, it behoves you to get that combo in because you would get more points for a combo than a solo jump so a miss on the jump out of steps is less of a point loss than missing both jumps of your combo.
