All-Star Brandon 2012 Stunt Illegal?

[King]

Basically they have to be careful how high they toss it.

Correct.

Hmmm pretty sure Senior Elite had an illegal element in their routine that has since been changed. :stupid:

And they CLEARLY knew it was illegal and CLEARLY knew it had to be changed. Different situation.

Then they would have to be careful about kicking the bass's/bass'/whatever heads off.

It's called a "base". This isn't a musical forum....

Not trying to stir the pot but why would Courtney put an illegal element in a routine that she was just going to have to remove once it was called out...:help:??

OMG NOOOOOOOO!!!!! A toss is simply defined by the height through which a person is thrown.

and how they're caught...after the "toss" they are caught in a prep level lib, not a cradle...like the rules say

How about rather than arguing over whether the stunt is legal you leave it to the judges and the team to worry about and discuss how they hit the stunt, probably the hardest stunt next to Maddies 360 ball up tick tock.. Maybe even harder.

 

[cheersdominique]

with a stunt like that, is there ANY way to ensure that it won't be called out in competition without completely taking the stunt out?

There was a very long thread discussing it several weeks ago.

I'm just shocked that coaches would go into a grey area in their choreography; that's almost unheard of.

I think I remember seeing somewhere that Courtney said the illegal version was easier than the legal one and they were still working on it (can anyone confirm this?)

You've just asked for this entire board to be shut down.

Wow, I'm dumb and I honestly know how to spell it considering I've been a base for several years lol. & Anyways everyone knew what I meant.

Were the rules the same back then?

I would say its legal bc if there feet were straight and not in a toe touch it would be probably be less then 18 inches from the bases hands.
