Bhs (B) + back layout to two feet (E)? series .2 bonus
bhs (B) + bhs (B) full (B) dismount

Coach says even if gymnast can compete both skills well, the bhs bhs full dismount is better to have in the routine because it is more progressive and a higher level skill since very few do a series dismount. But if you look at the difficulty level, the former is rated more difficult. Gymnast can't do both because she will get deductions for repeating a skill.
 
My friend had these two series in her beam routine, but she did a BHS-one armed BHS-dsmt because it is considered a different skill so she got credit for it. Another option is RO- BHS-dsmt if the gymnast has a good round-off.
