In optionals she will only need to get one foot on for the skill to count and then it is a .5 deduction for the fall. In level 5 if she fell without getting a foot on I would take up to the value of the element for an incomplete element depending on what she did before she fell...in this case it is up to .6 plus .5 for the fall plus any execution and amplitude deductions (bent legs, staggered hands, no continuous leg lift, insufficient split, etc). If she got a foot on I would just take execution/amplitude plus the fall.
Crap that's right. I forgot they score level 5 harder than optionals. My bad...Yes, this. Level 5 - missed feet in BWO is usually around 1.1 in deductions or more [emoji22]
If both feet do not touch the beam, she loses credit for the skill plus the fall. If 1 foot gets on the beam, she gets partial credit for the skill (it counts), and she gets a fall deduction of .5. She will lose some tenths but it will count. If a she misses both feet and gets up and repeats the skill successfully, she gets credit for the skill and does not get a deduction for repeating the skill. If she gets 1 foot on and falls, then gets up and repeats the skill, she gets a deduction for doing the skill twice. Level 5 is not judged harder, there are just outlined deductions for every movement. Any skill that gets at least 1 foot on before a fall gets credit for the skill.What is the level 5 BWO beam deduction? DD keeps going off to the right. She can do it on the floor but misses 50% of time on beam.
Sorry to hijack... I'm just a parent of a level 2 gymmie but trying to learn the sport. Is the info I posted above correct? I understand that it doesn't explain the deductions. I just want to make sure the reference I purchased doesn't have incorrect information.
I know it's not really judged harder, but it sure felt like it. BahahahaIf both feet do not touch the beam, she loses credit for the skill plus the fall.

I personally think the COP is tough to decipher for those of us who are not coaches. It's tricky! Like when I first was trying to digest all this I thought that L6 cast requirement was only horizontal, and that is the Special Requiment, but then in the Required Technique section I learned that all optional casts subject to deduction if they're not to handstand.Sorry to hijack...

Does the gym require a certain score? Because she technically only needs a 31, which is four 7.75s. Assuming her other events are decent, you should have a lot of room for error? Like with three 8.3s she'd only need a 6.1 on beam. If they think she's ready for optionals, I'm quite sure she can do that! Puma Jr is certainly NOT ready for optionals and she has gotten over 31 in L5. Good luck!!!So, she is supposed to test of of lvl 5 Sunday. She keeps leaning on her leg as soon as she starts to go Backwards on beam. I assume it's a fear block as she does it beautifully on the floor. So what could the total possible deduction be? Would she be better off taking the 0.5 deduction and have a spot? I am so worried the beam may kill her all around for upward mobility.
Not much less of a deduction for a spot. Have faith, let her go for the BWO and take whatever deduction comes her way. As long as she is reasonably strong on the other events - a low beam score won't affect her scoreout - you only need 31AA. My DD scored out this past December and I am fairly certain she got a 7.0 on barsSo, she is supposed to test of of lvl 5 Sunday.
