Is it safe to assume that Adam Bry had some sort of technical difficulty on sequence 1?

Way to go Wayne G!

Grem the difference between them is
Sportsman= no grey hairs
Intremediate= a few grey hairs
Advanced= lots and lots of grey hairs
For me anyway
Ohh yeah add to that no negative stuff in Int, or Sport.

Grem:
The difference between classes is not only the complexity of the basic shapes of the maneuvers, and the variations of those shapes, but the types, number, and complexity of the roll elements included on those shapes increases.
For example:
Basic may have a loop in the sequence
Sportsman may have a loop with a roll in it
Intermediate maybe a loop with 2 point roll integrated
Advanced may have an outside loop with a half roll, snap combo in it
Unlimited's loop has even more snaps or roll elements

You start to see negative snaps and maneuvers in Intermediate, and then the proceeding classes.

Enough thread robbing.... WAY TO GO GUYS! Man advanced is close!!!

Final invitational scores for Wednesday. Nobody gets cut today.

Apologies for lack of replies folks, our connection is garbage right now, but momo is en route with a possible fix. Hopefully the cast will work tomorrow.

Photos and videos will be uploaded this evening. We went manual and filmed a 40 minutes of video this afternoon that will be up shortly.
