With the change of the figure 4 rules, does this affect the leg cradles in anyway?

Not sure who sadechance is but No is a pretty strong comment. But please refrain from commenting unless you are 100 % confident. Don't want this ask a ref forum to become peoples opinions.

We had this discussion at our Gold Country Board meeting and the consensus was a leg cradle is fine most of the time. If someone were able to put a leg cradle and had long enough legs to actually figure four as well (probably unlikely) then it would be a figure four on the head.

Ok, a kid on our team used to do a bulldog/ball and chain arm bar and then figure 4 the head. This worked great for him, however now that a fig 4 is illegal he found out that from the same bulldog/ball and chain he could hook a leg then step the head resulting in a leg cradle. Refs keep calling it illegal, is it legal if it's a scissor and illegal if figure 4? Or are leg cradles illegal all together? Also, he always has a leg and head inside his leg cradle sometimes an arm, leg, and head!

Leg cradles are legal. As stated last year if he was able to leg cradle and figure four the head then it is illegal as all figure 4's are illegal
