I like this.

Level 6 always seemed too easy to me

Yep it was basically a repeat of level five with some changes.

Wait.... some of these vault descriptions don't make sense.

Look at vaults 3.306, 3.307, and 3.308.

3.306 makes sense: it covers tsuk 1/2 and kaz front (which is 1/4 -> 1/4 to face out front tuck)
3.307 seems like it's supposed to describe the same vaults piked, and 3.08 the same vaults with an additional 1/2 twist. But where it would make sense to describe a kaz (which would be 1/4 -> 1/4), they instead have 1/4 -> 3/4

3.407, 3.507, and 3.509 seem to have the same thing.

I'm guessing that's a typo, and they meant to describe a kaz in all of the above? That's what would make the most sense.

EDIT:
Looking at the optional cheat sheets.... I'm not seeing a full turn requirement for level 8-10 on floor; is that correct?

It looks like they have mimicked the FIG code and changed it to a smaller deduction for not including one.

Looks like it’s listed as a .2 deduction for no B turn, which I’m pretty sure is how it was previously? It was never one of the .5 special requirements I don’t think.

Compositional deductions are not hidden. There are standard ones for all levels 8-10, then there are specific compositional deductions for each level 8-10. They are not hidden, there is a chart in the COP very specifically outlining the deductions. I dearly hope they are not going to be coming off the start value, as that add a whole other level to calculating the start value for us judges. I don't see how subtracting compositional deductions from the start value is beneficial or necessary.

"Hidden"... maybe not... but there are no double checks and that is an issue. Shouldn't be any more work... just different... just add the start value up for composition instead of subtract the score down.

Let's face it... this is a double check as half the judges mess it up. Now we coaches can inquire and get a full explanation as it has been changed to the "start value" side of things.

 

[JBS]

I don't think they meant the composition deductions are literally hidden. I think they meant that with the comp deductions being added to the start value, the coaches will be able to better understand and "see" if their gymnasts get comp deductions or not. I actually think doing this is a good idea. While it may be a pain, it'll keep judges accountable for actually taking comp deductions. I've heard some judges don't even bother with composition while judging...

Yes... this.
