Level 3 Query

[KayleighCoco]

Hi!
Is it legal in level 3 to do a half turn express up (being released below prep and landing at prep level?)

Also is it legal to tick tock with no contact at level 3 if it releases and lands at prep? (I know higher level requires contact from usually a backspot)
Thanks in advance!

Both are illegal. In level 3 release moves cannot twist and must originate below prep.

Thank you! If possible can someone explain what makes them in this video legal as I'm struggling to see where the contact is maintained etc!

Struggling to see the contact on the 1/2 twisting switch ups.
The tick tock is legal because it originates at gut level.

Thank you! Once I re watched I could see the tick tock - even pausing I can't tell the contact for the 1/2 twist SU though.

Unfortunately, a skill being performed/competed at an event does not mean it was legal.

Switch up to Prep is legal at level 3. The 1/2 twist SU stops at prep then power presses up to the full.
