All-Star How Do You Think These Jumps Sequences Would Score? Help!

[cheerforcebboi]

I'm not that great at score sheets and what not, so I thought I'd come to the boards and ask all you cheer gurus! I had a little debate with some cheer friends last night and needless to say, we did not agree with each other. So here are two jump sequence senarios and I wanna know your opinions on if one would score higher or is it just excessive and just makes no sense!

Sequence One: Toe Touch - Right Hurdle - Toe Touch - Back Tuck - Immediate Toe Touch - 2 Back Hand Springs To Fulls & Doubles.

Sequence Two: Pike - Left Hurdle - Toe Touch - Right Hurdle - Back Tuck (Standard 4 Jumps To Tuck)

I feel like they would score the same. The first sequence seems excessive and would kill your athletes early on for no reason, especially if you already have a separate standing tumbling sequence with two back handsprings to fulls and doubles. Their debate was "more skills equals more points!" They just couldn't see a judge not giving them a higher score if the team did Sequence One in addition to already having a separate standing tumbling section on top of that killer jump sequence.

So would packing all that together on top of having a separate standing section score higher, or would the 4 jumps to tuck and then the normal standing section score better? Opinions?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!

One is obviously harder, but the reward isn't worth the risk. You only need 1 jump-flip combination, so doing two in the first sequence would be excessive and not necessarily "credited" to your jump score.

Reviving this thread so I don't start a new one but for my Youth level 2 team I am curious what range this jump sequence would fall under -

Toe touch, hurdler, land, prep, pike - 3 jumps but the 3rd is not in direct connection with the first two, there is a one count pause while they prep for the swing.
Move to new formation for double toe touch.

They do a total of 5 jumps but it is only two double cominations with a 5th jump.

Low range on a varsity score sheet. Probably the higher end of the low range.

basing this off the Varsity score sheet, i would say the low range
"LOW: Most athletes participate in a double jump combination, must include a variety
MEDIUM: Most athletes participate in a triple jump combination, must include a variety
HIGH: Most of the athletes participate in a quad jump combination or a triple jump combination and an additional jump, must include a variety"
