What Would Be Considered an Acro skill en>fr fr>en

So for an upcoming competition I'm competing a lyrical solo and the regulations of the competition say that any solo not entered in the open or the acro catagory must have four acro skills and under. But what exactly are they considering an acro skill? Would elbow and chin stands be more floorwork or acrobatics? Same thing with front walkovers, back walkovers, ect. I know that handsprings and ariels are going to be acro. Any help is really appreciated!
thank you

It really depends on the competition its self, check their website or give then a call to get their definition. I remember when I was competing with Starpower it was defined as any movement that involved both feet above the head, we had to re-choreograph about 12 solos because of it.

It's Turn It Up. The example was a roundoff backhandspring ariel saying it would count as 3 diffrent skills but it didn't go into specifics.
