OK, I'll preface this with the statement that I don't know for sure that DS is going to be a L8 next season, but his coach seems pretty committed to having a decent sized L8 team and told one of the moms that he could create routines with all A skills if necessary. I have looked at the rules, but I am still not quite getting how the SV is calculated. Please let me know if I've got this right and what I am missing!
-- They get 10 to start with as a base.
-- Then they get .1 for every A, .2 for every B, .3 for C and so on for the hardest seven skills in their routines (except vault, which has a separate table).
-- They either get .3 for an A dismount or .5 for B dismount.
Then here's where it gets confusing for me. They get .5 for each different group that they cover across the seven skills in the routine with up to 1.5 from spreading skills out across the groups?? And then the same .2 stick bonus we remember and love from compulsories?
So let's just say we had a hypothetical gymnast who did the following floor routine:
RO-BHS-BT (BHS an A, BT an A, and fulfills back tumbling group)
Press HS (A)
RO-BHS-Arabian (Arabian a B, fulfills sideways tumbling group)
Manna (C, strength/corner move)
FHS-FLO (FHS an A, FLO a B, front tumbling)
RO-BHS-BLO (BLO a B dismount?? Even though it's an A for girls?)
Would the SV be as follows?
1.0 for the seven skills (.1+.1+.1+.2+.3+.1+.1)
1.5 for groups (covers four groups plus a dismount)
.5 for B dismount
So a 13 and a 13.2 if the kid manages to stick the final back layout??
