<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The main problem at the World Champs was that some
pilots (Wolfgang, Roland, Christophe to name a few) did NOT do a snap.
Christophe changed after getting his zeros, but Wolfie did not. There was
NO break at all. Just a very fast aileron roll. No question that it
was a zero in my mind....</FONT></DIV>

<DIV> Steve I agree with you. Now how do we get everyone on the same
page? Even the judges at the Worlds disagreed on this. When I'm judging and
flying I know a good snap from a bad one but I'll be damned if I can explain
