What is the maximum deduction for performing more than two straddle jumps or two tuck/wolf jumps on the balance beam?

The maximum deduction for performing more than two straddle jumps or two tuck/wolf jumps on the balance beam is 0.1. This deduction reflects the criteria set by the gymnastics judging code regarding the number of similar elements performed in a routine.

When a gymnast performs more than the allowable number of these specific jumps, it impacts the overall routine's composition requirements. The deduction serves as a way to encourage gymnasts to incorporate variety in their skills rather than relying too heavily on one type of jump. Since the limit for such jumps is established in the judging guidelines, the 0.1 deduction serves as a standard penalty to maintain the balance and challenge expected at the Level 10 performance level.
