presentation. Yes, it is not part of the "downgrades" that are definable
by 1 point per 15 degree rules, but fit under other areas. Smoothness and
Gracefulness seem difficult to apply to an abrupt maneuver like a snap, but it
does apply never the less. Precision covers more than just the 1per 15
rule...</FONT></DIV>

is another example of the intent of a thread wandering far afoot....as the
original questioner, I'd like to refocus my point.<BR>Simply put -
according to our CURRENT rules, there is NOT a downgrade criterion for
offsetting of the track during a snap maneuver.<BR> I understand the
"more skillful" guy should get a point reward (by not getting a downgrade
that others may receive), but my point is ----<BR> What is the rule
basis for the downgrade?<BR> And since I'm specifically talking
about LATERAL track offsets, not vertical or angular, there aren't
"general" guidelines to handle this.<BR> My point being that there
SHOULD NOT be a scored difference between the line that shifts and the
line that doesn't, all other factors being identical between the quality
of the two snaps.....simply because we don't have the criteria
identified.<BR><BR>Or am I just being logical
again?</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
<DIV>The basis for the downgrade is smoothness and gracefulness, not any
other spelled out criterion. If one looks for a specific, spelled out rule,
it does not exist. Dean threw out half a wing span displacement in pitch or
yaw as acceptable. That's reasonable if not a bit much. Anything more than
that is grounds for downgrade. Not a zero mind you, just downgrade, and in
some cases, severe downgrade that may result in a zero.</DIV>
