Fast Fact:

The official rule book for elite competitions is called the Code of Points. The Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique (FIG) updates it every four years.

Stick It

Judges require gymnasts to land from tumbling passes without moving their feet. It’s called sticking a landing. This skill requires gymnasts to absorb landing forces when they hit the mat.

Practice helps gymnasts learn the proper form to stick their landings. The skill is about more than impressing judges. Landing correctly from tumbling passes helps prevent injury.
