Hi guys! I'm a newbie (not to cheer, but to this site!) and I coach high school cheer in Virginia. This is the VHSL Score Rubric:

I love the rubric this year because of how straight-forward it is and I really appreciate the room for creativity. However, the full up score range is questionable. Modified full ups (cross-foot, ruby slipper grip) are judged lower than the traditional full up grip and I was wondering if other states do the same thing when it comes to this particular stunt.
Also, is the ruby slipper (which I absolutely love! Best full up grip ever!) recognized everywhere as a full up grip? Because there were quite a few judges who didn't give us points for it because they didn't know exactly what it was. We had nice judges who gave us pointers AFTER the competition was over so that they could tell us what to do better for our official Conferences and they admitted that they weren't sure what kind of stunt it was.
