Judging Good YouTube channel breaking down scoring

[Denn]

I don't know who runs this YouTube channel, but this video is not only well produced but also, in my opinion, quite accurate. You could quibble a couple deductions, as always, but I think this is a wonderful resource.

Which deductions would you quibble with (just for my learning). I assume this person got the same total as the judges.

That was a pretty cool video. I've made some of these, and they are a lot of work.

My guess is that all of the following are valid, but that each judge could have skipped a couple of them:

• body shape on the back uprise at the beginning (I admit, I would have missed that one myself)
• foot form on the half Tak and full Tak, since he points his feet through most of the skill.
• leg separation on the half Tak
• both leg separation deductions on the Liukin — they'd take just 1 of them
• leg separation on the Cassina

Meanwhile, I bet a couple judges took –.3 for the Kolman, and I myself would have deducted the Quast (hop full) for body posture and late catch.

I have never made these kinds of videos because of how much work they are and because there's so much space to deduct stuff that you could get most nice routines down to 7.0 if you expect the performance of an AI robot.
