Well, that's what we all thought about the 4A based on Yuzu's 4A attempts. And then Ilia came along...

Would it count as a jumping pass though?

So, ow would it be marked by the tech panel? As an over-rotated quad?

Why? His last name is Siao Him Fa. Why not call it the Adam? ;) Or maybe the French flip since Surya and Adam are both French, lol.

Also of relevance from the article regarding back flips: And about quints: Soooooooo... if Ilia (or someone else) is able to land a quint and decides to use the extra 15 seconds in the program gained from one less jumping pass to throw in an illegal element like a QUINT... all he would...

I don't think you're the only one who had sources pointing at Illinois for both events. Of course, maybe it was the same person lying to everyone on FSU and pointing us in the wrong direction!

Not likely. The skaters/teams the USFS wants to guarantee make it to Nats will already have byes - either by Top 5 placement this past season or due to having at least 3 GP/JGP/Challengers already. Best bet - maybe one or two pairs teams get assigned to Warsaw Cup in addition to having to...
