Thanks Joan

IMO I  think that this is a really big problem.   In talking to some people 
(even judges)
many  really like that incorrect, fast, flashy movement.   I have also 
heard many people
critize the proper ground covering, elastic & easy moving gait as not being
"exciting" enough.   Again, IMO, when I get to see this correct movement as 
described in
our standard, I get goosebumps!!
