You're right Kent. The old system did say something to the effect of 1.40 under the sea level index. With regard to the runs this year that hp was given and retracted. I believe there were two runs at Boise that should have warranted hp based on this but were never given hp or retracted at least not publically that I'm aware of.
It shouldn't have to say anywhere in the new rule about it being refactored to sea level. It should just be common sense. If you correct a record run back then why wouldn't you correct any run that triggers the system back. Again, in some lower stock classes we're talking over a tenth difference in correction. How is that even remotely fair for anyone potentially running a combination like that. If you correct one back you have to correct the other. If not this whole system is a bigger joke then it already is.
This is part of the problem we have in our country today. Everything has to be written out. I'm not that old but when did common sense completely leave the room.
