6 - Metronome 120 bpm - Marker Thrust/Boost Thrust: - The thrust is performed with the right side to the panel and the body starting in a back pike position, Legs must be vertical at the start of each thrust. -Thrust is executed on count 1. Each thrust must be followed by a back tuck somersault. Boost: - The boost is set up under water with a flat back, at a 2 o clock/30 degree angle with the first boost facing the panel (no arms up), the second boost is performed with the right side to the panel (no arms up). The third boost facing the panel (no arms up). The body moves to the vertical line while keeping the spine straight. The body sinks on the vertical line. Element Sequence: Count 1- Thrust, Count 1- Boost, Count 1- Thrust, Count 1- Boost, Count 1- Thrust, Count 1- Boost Two scores will be given for height, one for the thrusts and one for the boosts. One score will be given for the accuracy of counts. Penalties: pt if competitor performs an incorrect sequence Accuracy of Timing:1-5 pts. Swimmer stays on prescribed time. 5 Perfect Hit and Hold 4 Mainly Hit and Hold 3 Some Hit and Hold 2 Constantly moving 1 Irregular throughout 0 Unrecognizable Thrust Height 1-5pts 5 Above waist Perfectly extended/aligned 4 Waist 3 Pelvic Bones 2 Mid Butt 1 Butt Crest 0 Below Butt Crest * Deduction up 2 pts for extension and alignment Boost Height 1-5pts 5 Clear Crotch 4 Almost clear crotch 3 Between the crotch and hip bone 2 Hip bone 1 Waist (belly button) 0 Below wais * Deduction up 2 pts for extension and alignment
7 - Metronome 120 BPM - Under water speaker - Monitor to count the number of repetitions and indicate the number completed to swimmers over a microphone every 5 repetitions. - Leg marking kit. Agility and Accuracy: Leg position switches (Height- Speed-Position) - Swimmer starts in a right or left helicopter position (to be announced at the competition): The straight leg is closest to the panel. - The torso is straight from the hip through head but not necessarily on a vertical line when in the helicopter position. - One leg extended horizontally in front of the body along the surface, the other leg is bent with the heel above the buttocks, the shin should be parallel to the surface and at the surface. - Swimmer lifts the straight leg to a vertical position. - Swimmer simultaneously extends the bent leg forward, moving the body into a fishtail position. Maximum height is desirable. - Simultaneously move both legs back to the original helicopter position repetitions should be completed. 1 repetition starts in a helicopter, switches to a fishtail and returns to the same helicopter. - Repetitions should be performed to a metronome. One move completed per beat; i.e. helicopter to fishtail = 1 beat, fishtail to helicopter = 1 beat. - Tempo is set at 120 beats per minute or 2 beats per second. - GOAL: To test précises synchronization, Hit and Hold specific positions. To complete 20 repetitions from helicopter to fishtail with accuracy of timing and position, at maximum height, with minimal splash, and with good extension. Travel should be minimal. Height: Height on the vertical leg in the fishtail positions. Height : 1-5 pts. 5 at or above the 1/4 mark (Gold) 4 at the ½ to ¼ mark (Silver) 3 at the ¾ to ½ mark (Bronze) 2 at the knee cap to ¾ mark 1 at the knee cap 0 below the knee cap Accuracy of Timing:1-5 pts. Swimmer stays on prescribed time. 5 Perfect Hit and Hold 4 Mainly Hit and Hold 3 Some Hit and Hold 2 Constantly moving 1 Irregular throughout 0 Unrecognizable (If incorrect start position is executed a 1 point penalty is assessed. Athlete will perform the skill again.) If 20 repetitions are not complete, the result is a failed skill.

Left kneecap faces toward the bottom of degrees or less the pool, while the Right kneecap faces up parallel to the surface degrees or less - Back Tuck when completed Gold Top of both legs above the surface dry with the crotch at the surface, and both legs 180 degrees apart and parallel to the wall. Body is in vertical alignment with head and shoulders under hips. Silver Some wash over legs, crotch ½ -1 inch from the surface and/or legs 170 degrees or less apart, not parallel to the wall. Body is in vertical alignment with head and shoulders under hips. Bronze Legs through the surface of the water, crotch 1½- 2 inches from the surface and/or legs 160 degrees or less apart, not parallel to the wall/lane line. Body is in vertical alignment with torso under hips. Body is in vertical alignment with head and shoulders under hips. *Right and Left split is an average score of both. * Center split is judged separately. Center Side View -We are judging Split ROM/Flexibility, not the Ariana rotation/figure.
9 - Metronome set at 120 bpm. - One Figure Marker Continuous Spin Equipment DESCRIPTION SCORING CRITERIA - Right side to the panel. - Swimmer starts in a vertical position at maximum height and holds for a minimum of 4 ticks before spinning. Arms transfers on fifth tick to a standard spinning technique*. Support scull is not an acceptable spin technique. - A rapid continuous spin of 540 degrees is executed. - Levels start at maximum height with even drop spaces throughout the 540 as the heels reach the surface, and continues through submergence. - Timing: 1 beat per 180 (half rotation), 2 beats per 360 (full rotation). Goal: To achieve maximum height in the vertical, maintain vertical alignment during the spin, rapid spins. * Acceptable spin techniques need to be defined. Height : 1-5 pts. 5 at or above the 1/4 mark (Gold) 4 at the ½ to ¼ mark (Silver) 3 at the ¾ to ½ mark (Bronze) 2 above the knee cap to ¾ mark 1 at the knee cap 0 below the knee cap Timing/Speed of revolution:1-5 pts. Swimmer stays on prescribed time. 5 Perfect timing/speed 4 one count off 3 two counts off 2 three counts off 1 four counts off 0 Improper technique Rate of Descent: There should be an even rate of descent during each revolution. The rate should be consistent from maximum height through completion of the descent. If the number of spins are not completed by the heels, the result is a deduction of up to 5 points.
