I would beef up the falling leaf-toeloop to add a jump before the falling leaf (otherwise it's not considered a jump combo). But other than that, you should make it to final round with those elements if you just skate it clean and with good flow. This year I won AN at Silver II (now Silver III) with no flying camel and it was just as well that I didn't attempt one because 2 of the 3 skaters who came in right behind me attempted a flying camel and missed it. That happens a lot. . .
