Which score corresponds to FX dance elements evaluated as 1 C and 1 D or E?

The score for a combination of 1 C-level dance element and 1 D or E-level dance element on floor exercise corresponds to a deduction of .05. In gymnastics judging, dance elements are categorized by their difficulty, with C, D, and E grade elements reflecting increasing levels of complexity and artistic value.

When a gymnast performs a C-level and a more advanced D or E-level dance element, they successfully fulfill the requirement for acrobatics and dance composition. However, the guidelines stipulate a specific deduction for combinations that do not reach the minimum required levels for higher bonus points or scores. In this case, the performance of these elements can lead to a minimal deduction rather than a significant penalty, hence the .05 score.

Understanding these scoring nuances is critical for both gymnasts and judges, as they reflect the importance of achieving a balance between difficulty and execution in floor routines.
