Proposal 21: 7C7.2.1 Dismounts
[ Revision 1 ]
Committee:
Freestyle Development Committee
Submitted
on 2017-04-02
Status:
Set-Aside (Reviewed from June 17, 2017 to June 23, 2017)
Background
As we no longer have border mistakes we should call this chapter simply Dismounts.
We suggest to differentiate more between dismounts
0,25 very short dismounts with only one foot on the ground ,
0,50 with two feet on the ground
0,75 with saddle or pedals touching the ground
1,00 with other part of the body touching the ground
Proposal
old: 7C.7.2.1 Mistakes: Dismounts
Low scores are given for routines with more than 8 major dismounts, therefore interrupt-
ing the flow of the routine. Medium scores are given for a routine that has approximately
3 major dismounts and a few minor dismounts. High scores are given for a routine with
no major dismounts, and few or no minor dismounts. Judges need to be able to differ-
entiate between a planned dismount and an unplanned dismount.
Major
dismounts are when the unicycle falls and/or a hand or any body part other than
the rider’s foot or feet touch the floor. Major dismounts are also when the choreography
of a rider’s routine is clearly affected.
Minor
dismounts are when the unicycle does not fall, only the rider’s foot or feet touch
down and the choreography of a rider’s routine is not affected. A minor dismount may
also be counted when Judges cannot differentiate between a planned dismount and an
unplanned dismount.
Exception:
Dismounts that occur while the rider is performing a seat drag skill have to
be evaluated somewhat differently since the unicycle is already on the ground. For these
dismounts, the judges should use the current above language regarding minor and major
dismounts but disregard the parts talking about the unicycle. For example, if a rider is
performing seat drag in back and steps off the unicycle with only their feet touching the
ground, it would be considered a minor dismount unless the choreography of the routine
is plainly affected.
Scores are generated using the following calculations:
Score = 10−1.0·(number of major dismount(s))
−0.5·(number of minor dismount(s)
new: 7C.7.2.1 Mistakes: Dismounts
No deduction is given for clearly planned dismounts (but at technical difficulty less points will be given, if the rider has to dismount instead of doing a difficult transition).
0,25 deduction is given for short dismounts with only one foot on the ground ,
0,50 deduction is given for minor dismounts with two feet on the ground that do not disturb Choreography
0,75 deduction is given for dismounts with pedals or seat touching the ground
1,00 deduction is given for major dismounts with other part of the body than feet touching the ground
Scores are generated using the following calculations:
Score = 10−1.00·(number of major dismount(s))
−0.75·(number of seat/pedal ground-touching dismount(s)
−0.50·(number of minor dismount(s)
−0.25·(number of short dismount(s)with one-foot only)
Body
When presentation is divided in two areas, the judge can handle to differentiate the dismounts.
