High School How Quick Is Too Quick For A High/high Stretch To Arabesque?

[Sterling von Shimmer]

The out-of-touch, wannabe-AS choreographer in me wants to make our high/highs as quick as possible to save time during our elites, but the actual coach in me doesn’t want to look like we’re rushing through them. For context: regardless of the speed of the actual high/high, after we land them we go straight into the bump for a twist cradle, which I initially thought looked really good but now I think looks like we can’t finish the stunt. Thoughts?

Drop the twist cradle.

Drop the twist cradle.

This, why would you sacrifice the appearance of an elite/super elite skill for the sake of an advanced skill?
