To me the pre rotation looks like they're spanking the ice with their foot while rotating. It's like *SMACK-SPIN-JUMP* in my brain.
YES he knows! He could be a commentator! *WABAK*I don't want to sound argumentative or anything but I contend it is a bit more of you *PULL IN--SMACK THE TOE--WOOPAH*
True!!!!!!!!!
Look at Liza’s Pre-rotation on the 3t-3t and especially on the second one.

Looks like about 1/2 PR on takeoff of the first 3t and nearly 3/4 on the second with no UR on the landings.
My thoughts on why they haven’t addressed PR in the rules is because they would honestly need to set different parameters of acceptance for ever single jump. 3T as solo jump would likely see a different scrutiny than one in combination
No they all do and it's not cheating IMO.

This tumblr post does a pretty good job of explaining it, basically it's natural for toe loop, salchow, and loop to have at least 180 degrees prerotated before leaving the ice, but any more degrees and you should have points taken off. For lutz and flip I believe any more than 120 (???) degrees and you should get points taken off but that number might have been made up by me just right now but at least know that 180 degree prerotation is way too much for lutz and flip
