My daughter keeps landing off the end of the landing mat after her flyaway dismount on bars in competition. Does anyone know what the deduction is for this?
Hello
My daughter is competing level 4 this season and recently has started only doing her double back handspring with a coach on the floor near her. In level 4 what is the deduction if a coach comes onto the floor but doesn’t touch you?
FWIW her double bhs is beautiful but she has a block...
A while back someone on here posted some links to PDFs that detailed the code of points for all the compulsory routines. Does anyone have the links? Thanks!
I'm an Xcel Gold gymnast, and I've noticed this season that my scores have been consistently lower than I'd like them to be. Vault has never been good for me and beam has been a disaster this year because of nerves, so I know what I need to fix on those, but floor & bars are sort of a mystery to...
I think the title says it all.
More details, my DD's acro series is CW-RO. This past meet, she had a big balanced check after CW, then another big balance check after RO.
So my guess is, the deduction for these two balance checks was around 0.5 total, but then another deduction was added for...
Hello! My daughter is a level 6 gymnast. If she falls after her back handspring and grabs the beam on the way down, is that an extra deduction? Or just the .5 for the fall plus any form/amplitude deductions?
Hey guys,
I get deducted for that my knees aren’t straight. But my problem is that when I fully straighten it, it seems bent. I think this is called a hypo extention? Anyways, does somebody have a stretching exercice, or any other method to help me?
Thank you very much for a response! :);)
I remember that there used to not be artistry deduction in Bronze, but then I heard talk of adding one being added but didn't know if it had ever happened or was just talk.
I have twin girls, both competing Level 6 and both struggling to overcome back tumbling mental blocks. They competed Platinum last season without back tumbling in their floor routines. They are doing the same series in their Level 6 routines, but with added back element at the end of the series...
I have my first EVER gymnastics competition (I will be competing level 8) in about 2.5 weeks. Can anyone watch this video of my roundoff back handspring back tuck and tell me what deductions I might receive for it and any tips on correcting my mistakes? This video was taken on my first day of...
What is the dectuction for not having an additional Acro skill on beam for the level 9? Her series is a B to a D
She might put one in but - I’m just curious- everything else is up to level.
Quick question how do judges look at deductions for level 9 and 10 if your kids does and open pike vs a layout on bars and vault? Would it be better to do a pike or layout instead of open?
Just curious what the deduction would be for having the vault table at 110 instead of 115 for Level 5? At this point my daughter's vault is significantly better at 110. She still has time to improve. And I know it is totally up to the coach. Mostly just curious if she might end up with a...
(Hi all, I’m new here. Hopefully this will post correctly.)
I’m including a link to the video of my daughter’s coach giving her a spot on her vault -
The judge somehow didn’t notice the coach had spotted her, so didn’t give a deduction (score given was 8.6). Judge asked coach after if she...
The USAG code of points clearly states no spaghetti straps, no backless leotards. We are about half way through our optional season. I’m seeing a lot of backless leotards at competitions. Does anyone know why a gym would chose a backless leotard, and are judges taking the deduction? Or, if they...
Does anyone know off hand what the deduction is for an over time limit floor routine in Xcel Gold? I just discovered dd's routine is too long and I'm curious how much that hurts her score. Seems like a silly thing to lose tenths over.
Anyone know how much is taken off if a coach spots a kid on a skill? Compulsory level if that makes a difference (and not one of the skills where doing it without a spot is a bonus)?
Hi all...I have a question regarding deductions for level 4 beam. My daughter has had four meets and her scores have been consistently around 9.0. She looks pretty good, but of course, I'm no judge. For those who are judges, can you tell me if she's getting some major deductions for her mixed...
