Which scenario would receive a flat 0.30-point deduction?

• A. Lands acro in solid/loose foam pit (No VP/SR/CC/Bonus)
• B. Absence of music
• C. Complete or incomplete routine, less than 30 sec
• D. Overtime

Answer: (A)

A small, fixed penalty is applied for certain minor infractions that don’t depend on how the rest of the routine goes. Landing an acro skill in a solid or loose foam pit falls into this category because it happens outside the required performance surface and is considered a mislanding that doesn’t get any extra adjustments from other factors. With no VP, SR, CC, or bonus involved, this specific mislanding earns a flat 0.30 deduction. Other scenarios involve different rule areas: missing music, a routine that’s too short or too long, or exceeding the time limit all carry other types or amounts of deductions, not this fixed 0.30.
