Scrapper, that is a mechanic that we are instructed to use for USAV. At the end of a rally, the R2 steps to the side of the team that has committed the fault so that the LOR signal (point signal) is always directed toward the post/centerline. USAV recommends this mechanic for all of us who work that rules set as an R2. NCAA actually has no preference as to which side of the post the R2 mirrors the R1's LOR signal, only that it happen and look very smooth with your partner. However, with that being said, we try to get to the side that will be our receiving team to mirror the signals with our partner.
