Initial Jump ball touches

To start the game, the two jumpers simultaneously touch the ball, then A1 tips the ball twice, then A2 secures the ball.

Violation?

I seem to remember for some reason simultaneous touches are viewed differently, but I could be wrong.

You are.

If A1 touches the ball simultaneously with both hands, that only counts as "one touch" for A1.

If A1 and B1 simultaneously touch the ball, that's "one touch" for each.

1) simultaneous touch (#1)
2) A1 tips twice (is that #2 and #3?)
