Wolf turns

DD and I were at the point when we were ready to use my knitting "clicker" to count how many of the doggone things we saw!

So THAT is what that hideous squatting turn is called! I had never heard of or seen that thing before we watched the NBC coverage on Saturday night. I remember thinking, "Why are they all doing that awful thing, especially since 99% of them are so poorly executed and detract from the routines?" Looks like I wasn't the only one thinking that!

Ok, I'll bite. Why are they called wolf turns?

Wolf jump

Wolf turn

They do have a resemblance, don't you think?

Now I've decided that if the legs aren't in the position in the turn like pic one of the wolf jump, it doesn't count! That might get rid of them, yes?
