NFHS mechanic change?
 
Looking at the national federation rule and case book, they've done a nice job revamping the mechanics sections and improving the graphics

I did notice that the NFHS signal for 'over and back' looks like it has changed; previous editions show the palming signal and note that it's the signal for palm/carry as well as for over and back. This year there's a separate and different over and back signal

Did I miss something?

I've always done it the way they show this year. I think a lot of officials did/do. It's essentially the same signal, but a lot more pronounced for the over and back.

I make the signal twice for BC and once slowly and bigger for palming.

I use more of a wrist action for palming/carrying and more of a total arm for the backcourt
