FLOOR

11.1 General


The evaluation of the exercise begins
with the first movement of the gymnast.
The duration of the floor exercise may
not exceed 1:30 minutes (90 seconds).
The floor exercise music CD will be
given to the competition administration.
Each CD will be timed with the time
approved by the administration and the
delegation head coach.

Timing




The assistant begins timing, when the
gymnast begins with the first movement of
her floor exercise.
The assistant stops timing, when the gymnast
ends her floor exercise with the last position.
The exercise is to be ended with the music.
The deduction for overtime will be taken, if
the exercise is more than 1:30 minutes (90
sec.). - 0.10 P.
Elements performed after the 90 second time
limit will be recognized by the D- Panel and
evaluated by the E- Panel.

MUSIC



The musical accompaniment
with orchestration, piano or
other instruments (without
singing) occurs through a
recording.
Absence of music or music with
words


Exceeding the prescribed floor area, that is
touching on the floor with any part of the body
outside of the border marking, will result in a
deduction.
One step or land outside boundary with
foot/hand
– 0.10 P.
Step outside with both feet/hands or body part
or landing with both feet on the line slightly
outside (1st feet contact)
– 0.30 P.
Land outside with both feet

11.2 Content and
Construction of the Exercise




The maximum 8 highest difficulties including
the dismount are awarded
Maximum 5 Acro
Minimum 3 Dance
The maximum number of acro lines or long
acro connection (Newsletter #28) with salto
is 4; any difficulty in subsequent acro lines
will not be counted for DV. The 4th acro line
will count as the dismount.
7
ACRO LINE
An acro line may consist of a min. of one flight element
without hand support and take off 2 feet (rebound)
oincluding mixed connections
oFailure to land on feet first from salto will
still be considered an acro line
Examples:
1. a single or double salto (with take off from 2 feet)
2. a connection of multiple saltos (with take off from two feet)
connected or not with acro elements with flight and hand support.
3. mixed series (jumps or leaps) with salto (with take off from two feet)

Round off, straddle jump, front salto tucked= acro line
8
Rd-off 1 ½ twist, rd-off 2/1 twist, front layout step out,
rd-off flic flac double back pike, scissone
Newsletter #28
A Long acro connection consists of more than 1 acro
line in the same or in different directions.
11.3 In a long acro connection the 2nd acro line begins
with the 2nd acro element performed in the opposite
direction, followed by additional acro elements, one
of which must be a salto.
Example: One acro connection, but
two acro lines.
9
The following do NOT constitute an acro line:
•Salto with take off from one foot
•Acro or mixed connection of flight
elements with hand support

11.3 Composition Requirements
(CR) – D- Panel 2.50 P.
CR’S
11
CR - 1


A dance passage of at least 2 different elements
one of them with 180° cross split position
–
award 0.50
A dance passage of 2 or more different leaps or
hops (from the Code) connected directly or
indirectly (with running steps, small leaps, hops
Chasse, chaine turns).
12
CR - 1





The object is to create a flowing large
traveling movement pattern.
No jumps or turns are permitted because they
are stationary.
(Chaine turns 1/2 turns on two feet) are
allowed because they are traveling steps.
Leaps and hops must land on one leg if
performed as the 2nd element in the dance
passage.
Note: If gymnast is only walking…this is not a dance
passage- must be running steps.
13
CR - 2

One acro line with 2 different saltos
award 0.50
14
CR – 3
2 saltos in different directions
(FWD/SWD and BWD) in the exercise
Aerials may count as a salto
in a different direction
but do not count as an acro line.
15
CR – 4
Saltos with double BA and salto with
LA turn(minimum 360°)
16

DISMOUNT



The dismount is the last acro line
No DMT will be credited if only one acro
line is performed.
If in the exercise only 2 acro lines are
performed in 1 long acro connection the 2nd
acro line in this connection may be counted
to fulfill the DMT.

11.4 Connection Value (CV)
D- Panel



Connection Value can be awarded for indirect
and direct acrobatic connections.
The value of the coefficients for CV will be
added into the D - Score.
Indirect connections are those in which
- Directly connected acrobatic elements with flight
phase & hand support (i.e. Round off-flac, etc.)
are performed between saltos
