Code of Points – Floor
Routine Requirements
Every college floor routine begins from a 9.40 base start value. Special Requirements and Bonus are routine elements added to that base value. The Up to the Level requirements are deductions taken and do not affect the start value.

Saltos may be the same or different
Three different saltos in routine
No minimum value requirements
Final salto
Minimum C value
Dance passage with two leaps/jumps
One must be a leap with 180 degree split
May be connected indirectly via running, small leaps, hops, dance steps or turns

0.10
Missing backward salto minimum A
0.10
Missing forward/sideward salto minimum A
0.10
Out of Bounds
Any part of the body out of bounds*
0.10 each time
Execution Deductions
Incorrect rhythm in direct connections
0.10 each time
Lack of precision in dance parts
≤0.10 each time
Poor relationship of music and movement throughout
≤0.20
Relaxed/incorrect footwork on non-value parts throughout**
≤0.20
Relaxed/incorrect leg/body position or lack of flexibility in non-value parts
≤0.30
Flexed feet
0.05 each time
Extra steps
0.10 each time
Small hop on landing
≤0.10 each time
Large step or jump on landing
≤0.20 each time
Knee or leg separation
≤0.20
Insufficient height in leaps/jumps
≤0.20
Incorrect body posture on landing
≤0.20
Squatted landing (hips below knees)
≤0.30
Insufficient rotation in twisting acro elements
≤0.20

≤0.30

0.50
Splits/jumps
180 degrees
No deduction
160-179 degrees
0.05-0.10
135-159 degrees
0.15-0.20
134 degrees or below
Skill devalued
*The line itself is considered in bounds. A fall while out of bounds still incurs the fall deduction (0.50 + 0.10) **Think of Kathy Johnson Clarke’s commentary during Sarah Finnegan floor routines on this point. We don’t see the deduction often, but perhaps should.
