What is the maximum deduction for incomplete turn or twist?

• A. Up to 0.10
• B. Up to 0.20
• C. Up to 0.30
• D. Up to 0.40

Answer: (B)

When a gymnast doesn’t finish the required rotation in a skill, judges apply a deduction for the incomplete turn or twist. This is treated as a relatively small error that shows up in the execution aspect of the skill. The Code of Points sets this deduction at a maximum of 0.20, reflecting that not completing the rotation is a minor flaw, but still penalized. The actual deduction would depend on how much rotation is missing, but it cannot exceed 0.20 for this fault. Larger issues or different faults would fall under other deduction categories, not this one. So the maximum for an incomplete turn or twist is 0.20.
