Any other opinions on the legality of these jumpstops? Would it be out of line to talk to officials before game to ask them to observe the moves in warmups so it doesn't surprise them during game?

Exactly, After talking to the referees( after the game in which they called this move a travel) about this move some seemed confused "catching the ball with one foot on floor and jumping to 2 feet landing simultaneously". So it makes me question how well versed they are on this and they usually say "well maybe you are right" with a deer in headlight look. So my view is to prep them before hand.
The move that gets called the most is the 'step back move' starting at 4:19 on video. thanks As I stated earlier in most games it is not called but when we get a referree that calls it is very frustrating. In one game the step back was called 3 times. |

What age/level is your daughter playing? If she is in vid, looks like 7th,8th grade? With exceptions you may have newer officials doing those games. I realize it must be frustrating if moves are legal. I always listened to a coach or even parent(halftime, or after game if they were respectful to discuss a situation at length) in a lower level game. |

You ought to send this(video) to all the coaches you can.

Send it to coaches or referees? |
Good footwork for her age.
I didn't see a travel. I normally watch the two foot landing very closely, and hit the travel if not simultaneous. I see a lot of illegal jump stops in inner city leagues. |
Nice job with this video. It's good for officials in that it shows very well how to look for the pivot foot.
Traveling remains the most missed call in basketball. |

In regards to the video, 1:27 -1:49:
Take a look at 4-44-3b ... After coming to a stop and establishing a pivot foot: if the player jumps, neither foot may return to the floor, before the ball is released on a pass or try for goal. This is what I understand to be a "drop-step", and in the video, both feet are off the floor (jump), and then the left foot returns to the floor before the ball is released on a try, thus a travel call. This move, to be legal, must have the non-pivot foot in contact with the floor, before the pivot foot is lifted. Admittedly, it is sometimes missed, due to the speed of the move. |
