What happens if the point of intersection is not attempted successfully?

If the point of intersection is not attempted successfully during a synchro skating performance, no value is assigned to that element. This indicates that the intersection is a critical component of the program, and failing to execute it properly means that the judges cannot evaluate that particular element. As a result, it is deemed incomplete or unsuccessful, leading to a score of zero for that aspect of the routine. Assigning no value does emphasize the importance of executing all planned elements correctly, as each component contributes to the overall performance score.

In the context of the other options, if the element were to continue without consequence, it would diminish the significance of executing intersections properly. Allowing all skaters to retry the intersection isn't feasible under competition rules, as each attempt must adhere to the planned program structure. Finally, the automatic score adjustment doesn't apply, as no points can be assigned if the performance of that element is not successful. Thus, the correct interpretation aligns closely with the guidelines surrounding scoring in synchro skating.
