What is the deduction for the third run approach on mount?

• A. 0.30
• B. 0.30 - taken by Chief Judge from average score
• C. 0.50
• D. No deduction

Answer: (C)

When a gymnast needs a third run to mount, a flat penalty is applied to the final score. That extra attempt signals an incomplete or unstable mount, so the judges deduct half a point. It’s a fixed deduction that isn’t taken from an average or adjusted by the chief judge; it’s simply 0.50 subtracted for a third mount attempt. So the best answer is 0.50. The other options don’t fit because they either reflect different types of deductions or imply no deduction at all for this situation.
