How many points are deducted for arm swings to maintain balance during landing?

The appropriate deduction for arm swings to maintain balance during landing is 0.1 points. This deduction reflects a minor error in the execution of the skill, as slight arm movements can occur naturally due to the need to regain balance. Such small adjustments are not considered severe faults, hence the lower point deduction. A deduction of 0.1 points acknowledges that while the gymnast did use their arms to maintain balance, it did not significantly detract from the overall quality of the landing or the performance. More substantial arm movements or corrections during the landing would incur higher deductions, but a small swing falls within the minor error category, meriting only a 0.1 point reduction.
