Maybe it had something to do with Soloham, I noticed it wasn’t as prevalent in this years WYYC 4A routines as in the past :thinking:. I could see this being something that caused a riff at Japan Nationals if there was criticism of the judges and the scoring system.

see the case. That’s what’s happening.

Who made the decision to ban taka in the first place? Has anyone figured that out yet?

It wasn’t Steves decision and the JYYF is apparently not to blame

Why don’t we all just grab our favorite throw and chill. :ice_cube: Or, as Mac would say, don’t trip.

It’s not a out being chill, it’s about a legitimate concern that should be addressed. Can’t say “just chill” to every issue that comes up in life sometimes.

I just think the incident has been speculated about enough. What if there is no conclusion and we never find out. I plan on being in Cleveland next year regardless of what transpires.
