Hate comparative scoring too. Worlds was a prime example this year. Supposedly if a team hit a clean routine, they would be rewarded for it. Definitely did not happen..."popular gyms" scoring much higher than they ever should have and scores so much farther apart for no apparent reason/justification. I am also concerned with the phrase in pyramids/stunting "almost drop/fall but are saved.....'excessive moving'....". Those are most certainly "subjective" terms and we have all seen where, in the same competition/same division, one team got the deduction and another did not. If we are going to deduct for this stuff, then it needs to be "all or nothing" . Every bobble, if noticeable at any level, gets a deduction. If the stunt falls/dismounts early, larger deduction. Incomplete twisting on cradles is certainly easier to catch vs tumbling, but again it needs to be the same for all teams. Incomplete twisting is a safety issue so I really like this one!
