I read over the code some more and watched the video again. I definitely made a mistake on the dismount.

Sorry, I ain't good at this.

C= scissor handstand, B= baily, E= Flop, D= 1/2 one pommel russian, D= tong fe, A= scissor pickup, B= 3,4,5 sovato, D= magiar, D= sovato, D= handstand 180 dismount. Difficulty: 5.8

It used to be, now to get a B you must travel from the far handle, not from the middle. See box 44 and 56 of group 3 in the 2009-2012 code of points.

@misha33314 that is actually a B (the travel that you mention)

[misha33314]

YugoLunax is correct except the first flop sequence 0:40-0:45 is a E, he does 2 loops after it making it an E. Also the travel from 0:55-0:58 is an A. There is only 9 skills including the travel mentioned which means that an additional A (any circle) will also count toward his difficulty.

[YugoLunax]

I'm no expert, and this is not comprehensive.

0:31-0:34 = Scissor backward to handstand on 1 pommel (not Li Ning): D

0:37 = Cross Support Circle on 1 pommel: B

0:40-0:45 = D flops: direct stockli B (DSB), DSB, 1 cross support circle

0:46-0:49 = D flops: 2 cross support circles, Russian 180 on 1 pommel

0:50-0:51 = Tong Fei: D

0:58-1:02 = Magyar travel: D

1:02-1:05 = Sivado: D

1:08-1:11 = D dismount: side support circle to handstand with full turn and full travel.
