scoring

Hello, I am new to this site and was wondering about the scoring for the state TOPs testing? I know it changed since last year since they added the skills at the state level, but I have no idea how the scoring will go?

Jordyn Weiber only beat Gabi by .20 points and Gabi had a fall on beam. Jordyn is the reigning world champion and considered by some as the favorite for the gold medal in London. You probably can't fall and win. But if Gabi Douglas "hits" on all events is there anyone who could beat her in the...

I started to hijack Bribri's thread, and then thought better of it and am starting a new one. Her neice got a 37.325 at level 5 States which was 9th place. That seemed like a really low place for such a high score, so this was my question... cut and pasted from what I was going to post on...

Has anybody heard information on what the scoring will be for the new state skills?

Since I joined Chalk Bucket, I've learned that focussing on scores is the wrong way to go. I've embraced this mentality and have steered my daughter away from getting hung up on setting score-related goals. She's embraced that idea, focussing instead on implementing corrections her coach has...

Okay, so i broke my leg 3 months ago and had my first "meet" back. My coaches told the floor judge that i would be doing some different stuff in my routine (I am a level 6) and no tumbling. My coach told the judge to only score me on the stuff that i do. In my routine i did not do my leap pass...

hi, i have read on usag's site about the scoring, but i couldn't find anything about the specifics for ALL of their point deductions (falls, wobbles, disconnection of skills, out of bounds, etc). i've read that a fall off the apparatus is a deduction of 0.8, then on another page i read it was a...

Well, I've seen quite a few threads here about scoring out of level 6, which I'm about to do. (Yay!) So I was wondering who here has done it, how it worked out, and what was your experience. Also, coaches, do you do this often? If so, how, why and under what circumstances? I'm just...

I have been looking at results that have started coming in and the bars scores seem really low....Is there some changes in scoring that are having this effect? My dd first meet is next weekend and I would love a heads up!

I have noticed a big difference in scoring between the scoring in Canada and the US. I am not a judge but have competed for quite a few years so can pick up simple deductions. Many of the videos on youtube I was have say a 9.5 when I can clearly see many more deductions and its not just one...

I have a question about elite gymnastics scoring with the new system. I know the difficulty level is taken from the ten most difficult elements, but my question is with the execution. When they score execution, do they deduct from only the 10 most difficult elements or all of the elements...

Hi, My DD is new to level 7 this year. Any expectations/pointers/information any of you can give me on this level would be great. One specific question I have is floor scoring. Does anyone know what they look for? With everyone having a different routine what are things that can be deducted...

I honestly don't know how much is the same or different with US and canada scoring, but I know we have some fellow Canucks here who might be able to help. Some of the the Pre-novice National girls went to a meet 2 weeks ago (dd not quite there yet) and the coach posted the results sheet. I was...

Just completed Level 5 sectionals. Made State, but there was some really odd scoring going on. Maybe a coach out there can explain to me how it is mathematically possible for one girl to fall off the bar on her glide kip, do a pull-over back on (so no complete kip), two step her dismount, and...

L10 Floor Scoring Question How would this routine score? [A numerical estimate is kind of what I’m looking for and also if you want to give a little breakdown on where the huge composition deductions and the execution/artistry that are probably inherent because of how the routine is put...

Hey! So I heard like you can't skip level 5 without competing at least one competition..but then how can you compete level 6 if you do score out? and someone said in the post you can compete level 5 but with some level 6 skills...I don't get that..can someone help me please?? Thank you!!!! (...

Just to let y'all know, i earned a 93 on this essay! And also, it was written by a young teen, so don't be too harsh ;) The scoring system used in gymnastics needs to be changed. Many have heard tell of Nadia Comaneci, the first gymnast to ever receive a perfect ten. Well, the scoring system...

Beetle had her level 9 state meet this past weekend. She would like help understanding the scoring on her beam and bar routine. (She asked me to post her video) 1st Bars - I can see the obvious deductions, not quite Handstand, Step on dismount, turing the pirouette a little late, Tapping...

How is the level 5 vault scored? I have been told that they take the average of the 2 vaults but I have also been told that they only use the best of the 2. We are in Missouri so I am not sure if this varies depending on where you live.
