thank goodness someone else can read the deductions guidelines:)

To clarify:
A "omg she almost fell but by miracle saved the stunt!" is a bobble

A fall to squish, sponge, cradle or any awkward position is a stunt fall

A fall to the floor or one that a spotter must intervene is a Major Fall

Source: USASF guidelines and me being a deduction judge for 12 competitions this year alone. (6 years total)
My apologies. I was just basing my opinion on precedent and did not actually look at the deduction guidelines.
 
false. your saying a fall to squish(sponge) would be a fall?
Yes a fall is a fall. A fall to floor is a major fall

What exactly is a "fall to the floor"? A lot of stunts fall to a cradle before being placed down on the floor, but that's a LOT different than the flyer crashing to the floor without being caught at all in a cradle.
 
If we don't limit US teams, other countries won't bother to come to worlds ...

But there should still be some sort of cut to get into Finals for the other countries. Finals in the International divisions shouldn't be a parade of nations here. It's supposed to be a top level competition. They're cutting good Sr teams left and right because they missed the top 10, while the Intl divisions have become a huge exhibition for lower level foreign teams.
