What is the value assigned to a cast in gymnastics?

In gymnastics, the value assigned to a cast, which generally refers to the skill where a gymnast pushes away from the bar to transition from a hanging position to a horizontal position, is 0.40. This skill is essential because it demonstrates strength, control, and technique. The cast is fundamental in routines as it is often a connecting element to other skills or dismounts.

While other skills may be valued differently—such as more complex or varied movements resulting in higher values—the cast itself is standardized at 0.40 in the scoring system for levels 4 and 5.
