Maybe the cushion?

I get that you are trying to protect the floor/muffle crashing noises but the cushion gives perhaps a few inches head start to lockout, also maybe a slight assist as it comes off the ground - i am sure not much assistance but it is a cushion and they do support a bit of flat weight.

Otherwise good lift with control to top and followed down.

...and it was a pillow not a cushion! ;)

Maybe the cushion, implement leaves the camera for an instant before the weight is clearly seen, and possible because you're not using an IM pin so the overall height to the hub isn't known. These are all guesses mind you. Strong lift regardless. I'm sure once you know the exact reason it'll be easy to nail again.

There is no rule for travel, only to lockout and down, I managed both, showing a lift with weight to lockout and down...a downy pillow will not give a usable up but then again this is a peer reviewed and maybe they can't grasp basic principles! ;)

...as before I shall re-work and re submit with something that may be considered ok?

...but you CAN lift off an inch thick piece of rubber matting, which will impart more spring and this is not considered feat cheating!

Man no need to get upset. Just move the camera back so everything can be see and don't use a pillow and you got it.

Basic principles? Bro I'm saying your submission has to leave no reasonable doubt, and on that issue, it wasn't quite there. I never said you feat cheated, but if I were to pass it and along with everyone else, you'd see more pillows and perhaps some shenanigans as the standards get more and more lax. It's kinda like case law, if we as a voting body screw up this call, it opens the door for looser standards and the authenticity of GB voting loses credibility.

The rubber floor has always been in gyms and has been long acceptable as long as it doesn't elevate the weight higher than your feet.

Like Bob's lift here:

http://www.gripboard.com/index.php?showtopic=43538

Which quite clearly elevates the weight higher than the feet...I suppose you were the no vote here too?

I voted yes because it was quite clearly a good lift, the scaling didn't show a zeroing but we also didn't see it's calibration cert.! Jeez! A bit of common sense ought to be applied!

But a pillow? C'mon man... A pillow is designed to support the weight of the head when you sleep - some pillows are pretty damn supportive. I wasn't the only one who saw it like this. I suppose the 9 others who didn't pass it werent using common sense?

You might want to stop with snide insults towards other members, since they have to consciously open, watch, and judge your videos. Your attitude towards the process might cause a few or more to move on to other topics... Just sayin dude

You are clearly really strong. Why not just re-shot the videos and be done with it. Is the complaining and running others down really making you feel that good?
