True story...
The day before testing, I completed all 3 backing maneuvers in an amazingly short period of time. On test day, got 3 points because of pull ups.
There are still days where I can't hit the broad side of a barn. While there are days where I can make the hardest of backs look easy. Some time ya got the mojo and others ya don't.
I had the exact opposite experience lol
The day before my test I ran over all of the cones on the right side doing my straight back. I was convinced I was going to fail.
The day of my test I only used one pull-up on the 90.
What's happening is that you are new - your results are typical, as you've seen with fellow students.
It gets much easier with time and experience - lots of it!
It's just crazy! I'm at Crowder and one day I am nailing the backing and as the day goes along it just gets worse. What the heck! I watch this and hear the same complaints from fellow students. What is happening???
