Hi,
would these routines fulfill the xcel platinum requirements?

Routine 1: pullover, cast above horizontal, back hip circle, squat on, long hang kip, and sole circle dismount with a half twist.

Routine 2: pullover, cast above horizontal, clear hip, back hip circle, squat on, flyaway

I’m having trouble dropping into the kip after the clear hip and I end up bringing my hips back to the bar. Would the clear hip into a back hip circle connection count. I’m afraid the clear hip won’t be counted.
Any advice appreciated!
 
Both routines are missing a SR (losing 0.5 in SV), but routine 1 is also missing a "B" element (which is 0.3 in deduction)

For routine 1, you would a clear hip, or other "B" circling element in the routine
For routine 2, you would need a kip as your mount

I also have the same problem with a kip out of a clear hip and I want to do a back hip circle out of my clear hip, but I am also unsure if it would get credit. Talk to your coach about it and see what they say.
 
Routine 1 meets all the requirements but you are missing an A. You could make the BHC a double BHC and I believe you would be fine. If someone who knows more than me would like to correct, feel free!
