Yeah, you repeat the syllable structure for each syllable.
Like "ga-ba-te-koot"'s SS would be be for each syllable and would look like (C)(V)(V)(C), right?
One of those vowels isn't going to be optional. Unless your language allows syllables without vowels. Which a few might, though personally I'd prefer a conlang I can pronounce.

I'd say that's (C)V(C).

(C)V(C) - (C)V(C) - (C)V(C) - (C)V(C) - (C)V(C).
ga-ba-te-ko-ot

Or
(C)V(C) - (C)V(C) - (C)V(C) - (C)V(C).
ga-ba-te-koot
if koot is just a single syllable with a single long vowel.
