Intermediate sequence?
In the intermediate sequence the first manuever is a 7/8th inside loop with a half roll on the 45 down line. Does this half roll need to be center on the 45 down line? I watched the cirkus demo video of the guy flying it and he rolled almost immediately after the 7/8th loop. On the diagram it shows the half roll immediately after the loop, but I have been trying to center it on the 45 and it is very rushed. Rolling right after the loop is much easier than trying to center it on a short 45 line. Which way is correct?

Jonas,
The 1/2 roll has to be center on the 45* segment. I reviewed the video again and I did observe a noticible line before the roll. You need to start the maneuver high and draw a 7/8 loop with a decent big radius. You don't have to draw a very long line otherwise you rush yourself on the exit.

RE: Intermediate sequence?
I watched the video again and I think it can be misleading without a ground reference. It was hard for me to tell where the 45 stated with just blue sky as a reference. You definately have to start this one high, otherwise you are jamming yourself to fit the 1/2 roll in and exit at a comfortable altitude...Jonas
