I was looking forward to that as well.

Nothing.

The net change in the sequence is the replacement of the humpty (k=13) with the 270-degree turn (k=5). So the total k is 8 lower than the originally-proposed sequence (k=136), or k=128. For comparison, the 2002 Sportsman's total k was 129.

Y'know, if we REALLY like the proposed sequence better than the approved one, we could always submit it as our free, instead of flying the known again! :-)
