WAG Is this a skill? (1/2 Kasamatsu)

[akariflipz]

My coach said I could try doing a tsuk entry vault with a half twist off right into a front tuck. I guess you could describe it as like a tsukahara with an Arabian flip off of the table. However I looked up this skill and I can't find it online? Does this exist?

IIRC, the code doesn't differentiate between this and a tsuk with a 1/2 twist.

I am a huge fan of this style of vault (we call it a Kazamatsu on the men's side). I find the block easy, you can spot the landing, and it sets you up to very easily add an additional half for tsuk 1/1 credit.

Thank you!

Thank you!

I would double check with a judge or somebody else who is more up-to-date on their CoP knowledge than I am; last time I looked at the code of points for upper-level vaults was about two codes ago.

Here is the value tables for Level 10 vault...

https://usagym.org/PDFs/Women/Rules/dpcop/appndx01_Level10vaultchart_040622.pdf

The 1/2 twist is 3.306 (tuck)... 3.307 (pike)... and 3.407 (layout) depending on shape.
