Vault is the event of the shortest duration and the most difficult assessment. It is a no-frills event. It is all about the business of mechanics and understanding the basics and most importantly, being able to apply it to every family and every flavor of vaults. We will examine the fundamentals of beginner levels and following through to the most advanced vaults. We will also talk about “where the eyes focus” in order to see as much of the core areas of evaluation as possible.
Front salto vaults are emerging in greater numbers, both for variety and as attractive options for NCAA programs. This lecture will look at models and multiple varieties of execution, examine mechanics and performance qualities, and discuss evaluations.
