dismountings

Leaving one's horse

Dismountings are instances of getting off something one has been riding or mounted upon—a horse, a bicycle, a piece of gymnastics apparatus.

The word appears in contexts describing multiple such actions: The judge scored each gymnast's dismountings throughout the competition.

A formal and infrequent plural.
