2026 American Cup (Team competition, elimination each round)

I think that section of the Help Desk only applies to UB. See the red zoning to the left of the area you didn't snip.

If it applied to BB and FX, it would be listed in the BB and FX sections. It isn't. And the General Deductions (in the actual COP, not just the Help Desk - which would apply to BB and FX - and not just UB) make clear the 0.8 max only applies to landing deductions.

My apologies - yes, you are correct on this one!

Absolutely no need to apologize! I’m loving your analysis and how everything is laid out so clearly.

If only the WTC was so transparent…!

Based on the WTC examples, a closed ring position with the foot is not needed to avoid body shape deductions on ring elements. However, a closed ring is required for sheep jumps.

WTC logic!

For the E element (with only one foot) you don’t need a closed ring, but for the C element (with both feet) you do!
