They have just said that they will only place the top scoring 3 USA teams in finals, so whoever the 4th place (USA) team is they won’t be given a placement.
Because of the tie, but really they have a rule that says in the event of a tie, the team with the least deductions goes through.
There are international coaches posting asking why this hasn’t been followed as they are not happy!
Untrue, in level 1-5 all dismounts must have 2 catchers & a spotter OR a single base and a spotter, hence why extended stunts will have someone standing by their side to catch as they are acting as the spotter, even for "duel" based stunts, one of the bases must have a spotter grip. As neither...
I would say due to height it would be classed as a release move, BUT it lands in a cradle so MUST follow the dismount/toss rules - therefore requires a spotter..
