Hong Un Jong...triple?

[wandrewsjr]

Looks like Hong Un Jong has submitted the triple yurchenko as a new element at worlds. Anyone have any insight as to whether she will actually do it? Whether she has been training it with any success?

Here's her Amanar from the qualifying round. I think she will try to crank it all the way around in the final, and I really hope she doesn't get hurt.

So how does it work to get the credit. I assume if she attempts but doesn't get full rotation it doesn't count. Will it count if she's tries it, completes the rotation, but has a bad fall? I assume she would at least have to land on her feed. I don't want her to hurt herself, but it sure feels like it should be Maroney's to get.
