WAG Beam flight level 9/10

[Oldgymmom]

DD has B+B+C (BHS+BHS+BLO) for flight on beam. She thinks the b+b+c is .3 bonus, however if I am looking at the code of points correctly for triple flight I think only .10 which seem so low. Is it worth it? Need help please.

Not 100% but a bhs bhs blo does not have a .3 bonus. It is as you state a .10. Having a triple series alone does not give you a bonus. It depends on the skills they are connecting. A b+c is a .1 bonus and a c+c is .2. So your daughter's triple gets no bonus for the bhs bhs (b+b) but gets a .1 bonus for the bhs blo (b+c). If your daughter had a bhs blo blo (b+c+c) she'd get a .3 bonus. That's .1 for the b+c and .2 for the c+c.

I think it is worth practicing it. Bhs leads to layouts. If she gets pretty proficient in that bhs bhs blo, she can easily transition to a bhs blo blo and get that .3 bonus. A fairly easy triple series to get a .3 is switch split switch split split jump (c+c+b).

Thank you! It's exactly as I thought. I appreciate your help.

And a triple series is only "worth it" if you nail it 110% of the time...if you confidently land BHS/BLO all the time , and BHS/BHS/BLO 50-75% of the time, not worth the risk...you lose at least the .5 for the fall to start ...not to say it's not worth training it to get it more consistent though
