Which outcome involves brushing or touching the landing surface with 1 or 2 hands and no support?

• A. Up to 0.30
• B. Flat 0.50
• C. Up to 0.60
• D. Brush/touch landing surface with 1 or 2 hands (no support)

Answer: (D)

When you land, the key idea is what your body does with the floor and whether your hands bear weight. The phrase “brush/touch landing surface with 1 or 2 hands (no support)” describes a scenario where the hands lightly touch the floor but do not take on the body’s weight or stop the fall. It signals limited contact that doesn’t involve using the hands to support or catch yourself, which is a distinct landing outcome from a full weight-bearing touch or from not touching at all. The other options are numerical deductions (like a specific hundredth value) rather than a description of the action itself, so they don’t capture the exact landing event.
