Does more than a half-wave count as a single element?

Anyone have experience of using a multi-band sloping Vee beam? 

In preparation for National Field Day here in the UK we are considering
something along those lines.

We are restricted, by the contest rules, to one antenna which must be a
single element having not more than two elevated supports and not exceeding
approx 35 feet above ground at its highest point.

We usually have a doublet, but with no real restriction on space thought to
experiment with something different this time...

A sloping vee with the far ends moved around to favoured directions could be
an option.....

Any observations out there ?

Thanks
