Depending on routine readiness and the individual athlete’s goal, gymnasts were allowed to do modified routines at the verification.
Good idea.
Here are some examples.
Click PLAY or watch Jade Carey’s Floor on YouTube. (Moors on a separate tumbling line.)
Click PLAY or watch Jordan Bowers’s Beam on YouTube. (Rest before dismount.)
(via FloGymnastics)

Can anyone explain why a break before dismount is useful? I always thought beam was about flow from one skill to the next (physical and mental). Would having a rest not break that flow and concentration?
