Maybe rule changes are coming ?. Crazy idea - To self enforce no stop rules which are being partly ignored , marks will be made up of dabs lost and time spent in section. Ok - far fetched ...but an impossible idea ?

This reminds me of an old Alexi sayle joke: "I'm a gossip columnist in Stoke Newington. It's a big piece of paper with "F*** All" written on it".

As much as I prefer no stop sections even I can't accept the rule change has made world trials better to watch.

I think in part this is due to the sections and venues not really being set for no stop. Venues are picked for trucks and Internet access, sections are basically stop permitted style still.

The other problem is that people just cannot observe it in real time.

Either allow stop and reversing and re introduce the time element or have rules for sections such as distance between boulders for man made sections.Having riders traverse flat grass between a couple of rocks isn't what I had in mind for a no stop section.
