Split angle placement in a leap or dance element is evaluated against a standard that determines whether the move earns Value Part (VP) credit and any related SR credit. When the split angle is missing by 21 degrees or more, that particular split fails to meet the required standard for credit. In that situation, the rule treats the element as non-qualifying for VP/SR, and there’s no deduction assigned specifically for this miss because the criteria aren’t being counted toward credit in the first place. So you neither subtract points nor award VP/SR for that split issue.
