Notes:
KB Swings... the bell does NOT have to reach 100% perpendicular, not like at the regionals... we felt like that was a rule that was too hard to judge. Your hands, shoulders, hips must all be stacked above your feet. Your ears must be through your arms.
Butterfly or Kipping Pullups are allowed as long as you do chest to bar. Masters divisions do NOT do chest to bar, but rather standard chin over bar.
During the Hand Release Pushups... put your feet onto a 45# or 20 KG (3-4 inches) plate to keep your thighs of the ground. The intent is to reduce/eliminate worming and the kipping pushups. Your chest can rest on the ground, as its a hand release, but your thighs knees and legs can not touch the ground.
Filming of the KB, pushes ups and front squats should be on the profile (from the side) so we can see the full range of motion. You should also be able to position the camera so we can see the chest to bars are met.
Full depth on the front squats, crease of the hips below the knees.
The front squats bar must start on the ground, and not a rack. But the first squat from the ground can be a squat clean.
