Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but NBC has said ad nauseum about how in a compulsory floor routine, every arm and leg movement has to be done to text and I'm just trying to understand how far that goes. Are actual steps counted?
The reason I'm wondering is there are some sequences in a few of the compulsory routines that I'm wondering how they would be judged. First of all, in both the 1996 and 1988 routines, there's a leap series where the gymnast does a jump, runs a couple of steps, then jumps again, and the does another couple of steps and then the final jump. (1988 might have had four jumps - I'd have to look back). Would those have a mandate on how many steps you were allowed between jumps or would it be more like the run into a tumbling pass and be according to the individual athlete?
Also, just before the first pass in the 1988 routine, there's a pretty movement where a gymnast runs in an arc to the corner. There's a similar sequence before one pass in the 1984 routine too. Are those steps also specifically counted?
Thanks in advance. Sorry I can't post the videos, but my computer won't let me at the moment.
