Cintia Rodriguez – Floor

The highlight of the first subdivision for me was watching Cintia have a good all-around competition. She was underscored on Floor.

8.1 E score on this routine?

What most gymnasts do poorly Cintia does superbly. Yet there’s little credit for excellence in form and flexibility.

Mykayla Skinner – Floor

Judging “mitigation“:

… lessening the force or intensity of something unpleasant … the act of making a condition or consequence less severe …

Like it or not, judges are influenced by difficulty. MyKayla’s routine is far, far more difficult than any other in NCAA. Many judges evaluate it less severely than the comparatively simple 10.0 routines with only 2 tumbling lines.

Personally I feel the NCAA is ready for rule changes rewarding more difficulty legally. O’Hashi on Beam, Peng on Bars, Mykayla on Floor, the double twisting Yurchenkos, etc.
