Who can confirm what are different kinds of salto that fulfill level 8 “3 different salto” requirement? My understanding is that there are basically six kinds- forward tuck, pike, stretched, and backward tuck, pike, and stretched. So, a back layout and a full-twisting back layout are the same kind. Or am I wrong, and the full is counted as a different salto than just the layout?
 
It is by the code of points. A back layout is a A and has a different code than a back full which is a B skill. The coaches have the code of points and can tell you what saltos are needed.

You could do a back tuck, back pike and back layout and meet the 3 different saltos. However those are all A level skills and the gymnast would get deductions for a lack of difficulty.
