He upgraded 2 tenths by adding a Pinheiro element (1/4 back kehr out, 1/4 front kehr in outside the pommels). He can still upgrade by replacing another B, though. (D) scissors backward to HS (-) cuts, pickup circle, flares on pommels (F) Busnari (flare HS variation) It's an F regardless of entry. (F) flare full spindle hands outside pommels (full Keikha) (D) Pinheiro (**ELEMENT HE ADDED AFTER WORLD CHAMPS**) (B) Flare hands outside pommels (E) Eichorn (flare spindle alternating sides of horse) (D) Flare spindle on end (-) Side travel forward over the pommels * downgraded from D to B due to using the pommels per rule 2.a.5. * There is no upgrade for flares! Only Magyar and Sivado are upgraded! * This skill is not needed for counting 10 elements or for element groups * He has piking deductions, and it is a tiring element. * SUGGESTION: Remove this element. Do a 1/4 turn instead. (E) Flare Magyar (E) Flare Sivado (D) Flare HS, travel, pirouette D-score = Requirements + DFFDBEDEED = 2.0 + 4.5 = 6.5
Denn Desormier I could be wrong, but isn’t his side travel a D? Element group III, box 4. Is that not what he’s doing (only flaired)? I see Sam Mikulak do it lately as well. It just doesn’t make sense that guys as good as these two on Pommel horse would be counting a B towards their 10 skills, or just adding it in for no reason.
