On Level 4 bars, how much is deducted if the hips are not a minimum of 30 degrees below the level of the high bar during the tap swing forward and second counterswing?

In the context of Level 4 uneven bars, there is a specific deduction for the position of the hips during the tap swing forward and the second counterswing. When the hips do not reach a minimum of 30 degrees below the level of the high bar, a deduction is warranted. The set standard for this particular error is a deduction of 0.20. This deduction is applied because proper hip position is crucial for executing the tap swing correctly, facilitating a more effective swing and preparation for subsequent skills. Ensuring that the hips drop to the correct angle also helps maintain the flow and continuity of the routine, which is essential for achieving higher scores in gymnastics. Thus, the amount deducted for not meeting this requirement is 0.20.
