switch ring on floor devalued?

[Optionals United]

One of the coaches at my gym read in technique magizine that switch ring was devalued from a C to a B. Does anyone have any info on this. We are having one of the judges at my gym look into it. Just thought i would ask here also.

Maybe your coach was confused by this rule update from the May 16-17 JO technical comitte updates:

New Element Evaluation for Floor Exercise​

Recomemndation to award “Bâ€￾ Value for a Switch-leg stag ring leap on Floor (#1.211)

But this is for a switch stag ring(front leg bent, too)


Here is the link to the minutes with the JO technical updates:
