I agree with the spin thing. Transitions should be out too, i never get this move...but never make easy the jumps if they do that is a step back of figure skating.
And olys are not the place to have fun tho. Olys is the only time that people that don't watch a sport watchs it and then maybe they keep watching or not, it the time for the athlete to do their best
Idk about ~easier but definitely CoP was flawed from the beginning for overly rewarding the wrong things and it still is. Unless the ISU realizes that and takes a serious look at reforming it there's going to be a lot of unhappy fans/viewers.
I don't care about easier vs. harder but can we at least have skaters stop putting in jumps that we all know they're going to fall on just to get the points? They need to have a more severe penalty for falling otherwise we'll continue having these splatfests where everyone squeezes in as many difficult elements as possible but fails to actually put out a decent performance.
I think falls should just count for 0 points and a -1 for disrupting the program flow. Why should it matter that you completed 4 rotations in the air? You can lead every lap of a race but if you get passed before the finish line, you don't win.

Even watching regular flying sit spins, nobody these days gets the height that skaters from the past did.
