Can someone please explain start values. My DD's start value on floor was 9.7. Her tumbling passes on floor are robhsbt and fhsft for level 6.

And if they don't perform the skill well enough, they don't get credit for it plus they get deductions. Say your DD has a switch leap but doesn't get it to the required height.... She looses the value of the skill (.3) plus get deductions for form etc (someone please correct me if I'm incorrect, this is how it was explained to me by both our floor coach and our choreographer recently as my DD was "missing" a B... Not really, she had it in there just wasn't performing it up to par but now she has a couple in reserve!)
Tumbling seems fine. All she needs is a tumbling pass with 3 elements - aka her RO-BHS-BT, and a salto - aka her front tuck or back tuck in either pass. What are the dance elements that she does? Sounds like she's missing a B element, as they are worth 3 tenths and her SV is a 9.7. Does she have a leap connected to a jump? That is one of the requirements. Does she do a regular split leap or a switch leap? Is her jump a tuck, straddle, or pike? What type of turn does she do? Full turn or full and a half? I think the answer to what you're looking for is in her dance skills. Until we know what those skills are, we cannot tell you what she is missing.
Also keep in mind, leap and jump requirements for levels 6-10 must be 180 degrees. Depending on how far off she is, she could potentially lose credit for the element. So she might have all the right skill but is not receiving credit for them do to her execution. We have all our 6s do 2 'B' skills that way if something happens to one of them, they have a backup.
Her first meet her start value was a 10 but she aslo did do a switch leap. Her couch took out the switch leap and put in the FH-FT for the meet she just did. She did a split leap and a wolf jump.
Split leap is an A (her previous switch leap was a B) , wolf jump is an A.
Unless she has a full and a half turn she is missing a B, which is 0.3 off her SV.
FH-FT is A + A. If she switched to a front pike, it would be a A + B.
Basically she is missing a B skill. She either needs to do a switch leap, straddle jump/pike jump after her leap, or a pike front. There are tons of other options but those are the most heavily used by L6s.
After practice tonight DD said that her coach had her practice a FHS-FP. If she does that well they will leave it if not they will put the switch leap back in cause she does that very well.
