Note on Alternative Flight Series for Platinum Beam

A series is not required on Platinum beam if the gymnast performs a flight skill.
Any flight element that is not a C or higher is acceptable.

Examples include:
  • Roundoff
  • Back handspring
  • Dive or block cartwheel
  • Front handspring
  • Dive roll
  • Korbut (back handspring swing down)

  • In some cases, a dive handstand may also be allowed, though it could be classified as a dance move depending on execution.
