===Scoring===
Tumbling passes are judged on two major components: difficulty and execution. Both are calculated to the tenth of a point. Scores are determined by a panel of eight judges.
Difficulty judges are given competition cards before the gymnast performs this pass. These cards lay out the intended skills of the pass, and these judges are responsible for deducting points when the gymnast fails to perform the intended skills. Each skill has a pre-defined point value. Common connecting skills such as [[roundoff|round-offs]] and [[handspring (gymnastics)|handsprings]] have low difficulty values, and [[cartwheel (gymnastics)|cartwheels]] have no value at all. Somersaults are given difficulty points based on how many flips and twists the gymnast performs and the position of their body during the skill.<ref name="FIG Code of Points" />{{rp|21-24}}
