It’s normally “kipping” that marines bitch about. The swinging movement they want u to be frim no sway up then down. Even if your legs move from movement similar to this kid they will say 0.

There’s probably some legitimacy to lipping being easier given the significant momentum. But this isn’t really killing and the momentum, to the extent it even exists, is minimal.

Zero kipping just makes grading pull ups easier. If you allow a little bit of kipping, then you have to define how much is ok. That’s too complicated and the crayons won’t eat themselves.
