[> My son was told that triple clicks, toe stands/walks and multi rotation jumps are discouraged but nothing in rulebook says boys can't. -- might be a region thing..., 15:55:19 11/19/09 Thu [1]

[> Wrong. They are NOT allowed. Rule book states 'Steps must not include triple clicks or clicks of an order higher than triple'. 'Double clicks are permitted when completed in isolation but a series of successive double clicks is not allowed' Alos from rule book -- TCRG, 04:19:19 11/20/09 Fri [1]

[> My ds has them. Never been dq-ed. -- I didn't know they were illegal., 04:47:10 12/02/09 Wed [1]

[> Technically, by the rule book, they are illegal, but I've seen multiple world champions including sons of Comisiun members doing them. It's not really enforced, but you do take a risk I guess. -- Only really worth it in the set anyway - heavy round is too busy for it to flair, 18:16:04 01/16/10 Sat [1]
