Definition: When a gymnast lands a tumbling pass, vault, or dismount without moving his/her feet, it is called a stuck landing.
The aim of every gymnast is to stick -- if the gymnast moves his/her feet at all it is a deduction.
On floor exercise, men are expected to stick their tumbling passes, while women are allowed to take one step back into a lunge without a deduction.
