Gymnasts 2 Pass Level 8 Floor

[Gymnast10]

Most level 8 gymnasts usually do 3 passes I’ve noticed in their routines. Is there a specific reason for this besides to prep for level 9? Is there anyway you can have a level 8 routine with 2 passes, 10.0 SV, and no composition deductions? TIA!

Yes. They have to have 4 saltos, with at least 3 of them being B's.
B+B direct and B+A direct. The dance needs to have a minimum of 2 B’s + 1 A.

Thanks! Would a Round-off handspring full and Front pike front tuck meet the tumbling requirement?

is it 3 saltos being Bs? My gyms level 8s competed RO BHS full and FT FP and started with 10s. The full and the FP are Bs, so that's only 2 B saltos..

The tumbling described would fill the tumbling special requirements (and assuming all other requirements are filled) would lead to a 10.0 start value flashed. However, this routine would incur a 0.10 compostition deduction for “salto elements not up to competitive level.”

In order to recieve no composition deduction, gymnasts need 4 saltos with at least 3 of them being "B"s. A two-pass example would be front tuck step out (A) + RO + BHS + back Full (B) and then front lay (B) + front pike (B).
