How do you correctly measure uneven bars? Is it the height of the bar to the floor or to the top of the mat? And how do you measure distance? Parallel to the floor? Or at an angle from low bar to high bar?
Technically all of the above... You can drive yourself crazy over a tiny distance when you consider the angles of the bars. Most important is distance between bars followed closely by vertical height above the mat.

Beam deductions

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to get some help understanding my deductions on beam. I’ve been watching my videos back, but I’m having trouble figuring out exactly where the judges are taking the most off. If anyone is willing to take a look and give me some feedback, I’d really appreciate it. I’m especially curious about execution deductions, rhythm/connection issues, and anything in my acro or dance that might be costing me. The judge started me at a 10 for this routine, and I got a 9.1
