Even outside of Donatella’s nationalism, the FIG rulings aren’t consistent; this is listed as a credited connection in the video above (post #8). The front aerial is landed with arms behind, then they go forward, then they go back again to wind up, and then forward again to do the next element:

Make it make sense.

I’m on my phone right now and can’t watch the whole video, but i think the case here is still that the arms are down. They are in front of her, but still down. As part of a mixed series, I believe this would continue the series but get an extra arm swing and rhythm deduction.

That’s a huge extra arm swing to me. I get that the rest of her body keeps moving but there’s no doubt on the extra arm swing.

It’s the type of connection that I think should be allowed because in my mind it’s connected, but that the rules as written shouldn’t allow.
