Judge this floor routine from Hwang Seo-Hyeon

[Denn]

I think both of those deductions are heavy-handed.

She’s, like, 120 cm tall and her hips rise significantly into both saltos. Moreover, the fact that the 1.5 is lower is hardly an issue — it’s a technique.

I will say that on replay I noticed form errors on that pass that I could not see in real time due to the video quality, but deducting for height on those two elements is just …

her hips rise significantly

I don’t see that at all.

And yes, I took legs on each salto.

So Denn, you’re at an 8.2 now? I’m at 8.0, with 2 tenths for height on each of those skills. If that’s the only thing we disagree on, then really that’s pretty in-line judging. Especially as it got 8.066 so the panel was very likely 7.9-8.2 ish.

In NCAA, this would get 9.9983.

Those landings would get deducted in NCAA but with the controlled lunge probably 2/3 she could manage clean. No form deductions for NCAA.

I’m not seeing legs on the smaller twists in real time. Even in slow-mo it’s very tiny, like one toe barely crossed over. Deductions mean nothing if it’s being given for that, as compared to actual crossed legs or leg separations.

Even in slow-mo it’s very tiny, like one toe barely crossed over.

She has minor leg form/piked body shape issues on each of the Back 3/2 and the Front 1/1, which is clear and visible in real time. Certainly not just “one toe barely crossed over”. Her legs are separated as high as the thigh. See pic above.

A tenth for form on each skill is perfectly fine. And clearly was taken by the judges in the floor who had a much better view than we do in this video.

The daylight between her legs is perceptible.
