Art,
Maybe these scenarios:
1.>A1 receives a pass with both feet planted and established a pivot foot (ie. she moves ONE FOOT) then she hops and lands on both feet and shoots a three. In this case she raised and put her pivot foot back on the floor BEFORE RELEASING THE BALL and it IS a travel.
2.>A1 receives a pass with both feet planted,
and without moving either foot, she then hops on both feet and shoots a three. In this case, she did not establish her pivot foot until she landed back on the floor after her hop, and it IS NOT a travel.

On item 2, I would disagree and think that this would be a travel. Yes, she had not established a pivot foot since either could be, but you have to assume that one or the other IS a pivot. When she hopped and left the floor with both feet she cannot return to the floor without passing or shooting the ball. This is the same as lifting the pivot foot to shoot, or making a pass. I would make the travel call in this case.
