RULING: Based upon the definition of guarding and Plays A, B, and C, the only logical conclusion is a foul by A1.

Here is the problem with that logic....when A1 jumped in a direction where B1 was not in his/her path, B1 LOST LGP....B1 has to obtain a new LGP....and since A1 is airborne, B1 can not obtain a LGP.
