I need a little help with a scoring deduction for level 10 Bars. My dd had a good bar routine this weekend and got a 9.150. Her coach thought it was a little low and asked the judge. She said she took .3 off for a rhythm deduction because she swings too slow. My dd has been an optional for 8 years and has never been told this. She is a slow gymnast, she is slow on everything. She tumbles slow and she swings slow. However, she keeps a constant pace throughout. Her coach was really befuddled by this deduction. He is not sure if we should even try to fix it. This judge has been around the sport for a long time…..she judges college meets all the time. What should we do?

This is not the actual video but it is pretty close minus the fall on the dismount.
