Which of the following would fulfill a special requirement in the BRONZE division beam?

• A. Back walkover
• B. Cross straddle jump
• C. Flic-flac
• D. Back salto tucked dismount

Answer: (B)

On Bronze beam, there is a specific requirement that must be met by including a leap with a wide leg split. The cross straddle jump is a true leap that demonstrates a large straddle in the air, which satisfies that split-leap requirement. The other options aren’t leaps with the required split: a back walkover is an acro element, not a leap; a flic-flac is a front handspring with no significant split; and a back salto tucked dismount is a dismount, not the leap-type element the special requirement calls for. So the cross straddle jump best fulfills that particular Bronze beam requirement.
