What is the deduction if the gymnast only does ROUND OFF at the end of level 4 routine?

Is this deduction greater or less than in she were spotted on the BACKHANDSPRING?

Im talking USAG...Does any know is it the same for AAU gymnastics?

coach spots during element - value of element+0.5 so for BHS that means 0.6+0.5=1.1

omitting/substituting element - double the value of the element 0.6x2=1.2

I'm not sure if they would take deduction for omitting a series of connection. That is 0.3. It is supposed to b RO>BHS>rebound so it's a connected element.

So possibly they take 1.5 for leaving the BHS out or 1.1 for having it spotted.

I don't know about AAU.

There are a handful of WAG judges on Chalkbucket that could tell you what they would take versus my interpretation of the text.
