My daughter a level 7 has been scoring around 9.3 on beam the past three meets (all meets this season). After last nights meet her coach told she had forgotten to do her switchie jump. Not sure that’s the technical name. It’s like a little flutter foot jump in place on the beam. Does anyone know how much the deduction would be for not including this jump? I googled and it said .1-.3. That’s a big range.

That is only an A skill. If she was short an A skill in the routine, then it would cost her 0.1 off her Start Value.
Requirements: Mount, Acro series (and separate flight acro if not in the series), Leap or jump with 180º split, Full Turn, Dismount. They need a total of 7 skills (5 A and 2 B).
If she has a mount (A), 2 skill series (A)(B ... flight), Split jump (B), Full Turn (A), Dismount (A), then she would need 1 more skill. If she does other skills that count (balance skill, additional acro or jump/leap, etc), then it shouldn't affect her score at all.
 
Thank you very much. It looks like she’d be deducted .1 as she does not have anything else that would contribute. Nice to being the score up by just adding that in! And thanks for letting me know the name. Our gym has been calling it a switchie! Lol!

YQW. The jump has MANY names: beat jump, flutter jump, changement, entrechat, entrechat quatre, and apparently, switchie, lol.
