Lots of people on Facebook didn’t know that there is an artistry checklist now for beam and floor and that the judging is getting stricter with artistry components. Also the casual viewer doesn’t understand D score.
It has grown in time, especially after her performance in Tokyo and then all the meets she did this year. She has literally been the MVP at the Olympics, CWG, Euros, and now Worlds.
The routines on average have been trying harder to have choreography that doesn’t get deducted, so that probably helps. Jordan’s routine is much better this year than last year.
She took out a whole pass; one that was giving her 4-6 tenths in deductions. That’s why her E Panel has gone up. From 7.7ish in Tokyo to 8.2ish in Liverpool.
I would say almost definitely not
Right, but the point is if her presentation hadn’t improved, the E-score would be lower than what she’s currently getting. There have been reports of a full 1.0 in artistry deduction being given this season, and not just to bottom barrel competitors.
Right. And my point is that these “reports” ended up being just that. Artistry at Worlds is being evaluated pretty much identically as per the last Code.
Not necessary. I’ve explained to you why her D Score is higher, and it’s got nothing to do with any improvement in presentation.
Is her beam posted anywhere?
It’s “being evaluated identically” because the dancing has improved while the judging standard has simultaneously become more critical. If Jordan did her current technical content, but with last year’s level of artistry, she absolutely would be scoring lower.
