Which of the following statements is CORRECT in regard to the SILVER Division?

• A. A front salto tucked dismount will fulfill the dismount Special Requirement.
• B. A split leap with a 40° split angle will fulfill one Special Requirement.
• C. A switch-leg leap will fulfill one Special Requirement.
• D. A dive cartwheel will fulfill one Special Requirement.

Answer: (A)

In the Silver division, routines must include elements that meet specific Special Requirements, one of which is a valid dismount. A front salto tucked dismount is a qualifying dismount that satisfies the Dismount Special Requirement, so it’s the correct choice. The other options describe skills that don’t fulfill the dismount requirement: a split leap (even with a wide split) and a switch-leg leap are leaps, not dismounts, and a dive cartwheel is a different type of skill not designated to meet the Dismount Special Requirement.
