Crowd sourced Technical Camera project

hearing some consternation about Zhenya's jump at Shanghai Trophy being called 3Lz!< instead of 3Lze. anyone have or seen good footage? guess the point difference isn't that much, but apparently the TP is seeing non-existent URs again but failing to see a blatant inside edge.

The only video I saw was the Youtube video posted in the event thread, but I honestly think she's just getting better at holding the outside edge longer. The angle of the blade at the end of take-off is definitely inward due to the rocking motion at take-off, but because it happens so quickly, you can't be 100% sure if it went completely toward the inside at picking or if the momentum caused it to turn that way after. Depending on what their video looks like, I think this call is understandable. Of course, there was no slo-mo replay of the lutz

I am so late to this thread...Great idea! I filmed some 120fps Yuzu's jumps during Skate Canada on my own, and feels happy that they don't get to be used this time to fight the judges. 

I will keep recording in the future and also record some other skaters, in case they don't get rightfully called. 

Happy to finally have found this thread!

@shanshani  I don't know, if you know this study, but I found it in our University library and thought, it could be interesting for the camera project:
