For the GOLD Division, which statement is correct?

• A. An Arabian salto is a restricted element.
• B. A switch-leg leap, chassé, stretch jump will fulfill the Dance Passage Special Requirement.
• C. A round-off, rebound, back roll will fulfill an Acro Special Requirement.
• D. A jump 1/1 turn will fulfill the turn Special Requirement.

Answer: (A)

In this gold level, certain high-difficulty elements are labeled as restricted. That means they’re allowed in a routine, but they don’t carry the same weight toward meeting specific requirements as unrestricted elements and come with limitations on how they can contribute. The Arabian salto is one of those restricted elements, so saying it is a restricted element correctly reflects how the code classifies it. The other options try to say that particular sequences would automatically fulfill dance, acro, or turn special requirements. In the gold code, those special requirements are tied to specific element groups and patterns, not just any plausible combination, so those exact sequences don’t satisfy the listed requirements as stated.
