1. No. But if you use a dismount between skills, make sure
it looks nice and deliberate. If not, you could get a big
ding for a UPD.
2. Only if you list them as skills on your sheet. In other
words, many transitions are skills worth points, but if
you want to include other things worth more, you don't
have to list them and then they are not judged as such.

front to crank idle and from there to side hopping?*
Yes. Unlike the skill levels, you do not have to ride
"normal" between skills. This does not necessarily apply to
mounts and transitions. For mounts, you must ride 1 rotation
of the wheel in the end position, whatever the mount says
that is. For transitions, you have to do at least 1 rotation
in the "before" and "after" positions for the skill to get
full score. Make sure you allow for those spaces. See the
front part of the Standard Skills List for the full details:

from Moab after sampling some of my pork rinds. They grossed out the
