    WAG Horseshoe vault mat construction question

    Sorry for the random title, I wanted to draw in anybody who has ever gotten all up in the inside of one of the mats they use around the springboard for yuchenkos. If it has a thin piece of wood inside, is that piece of wood supposed to be in one piece or three pieces? Because we assumed ours...

    Parents Help me to understand this vault score

    Hi! My daughter had a meet recently. I don’t understand her vault score. The paper that she came home with says that judge number one gave her a 10.0 and judge number two gave her a 8.7/8.7. Her vault score was a 8.7. I thought scores were an average of the two judges but I must be wrong...

    Parents Vault and tiny gymnast

    My DD(8) seems to struggle with vault. She is all of 3 1/2 ft and weighs about 36 lbs. She doesn't seem to get much height off the springboard and tells me it doesn't move very much when she jumps on it. I'm not sure if she is not running fast/well enough and her timing is off hitting it, or if...

    Parents Vault what in the world do they look for

    After many years the parent of a gymnast (or gymnasts as it were) I usually can watch an event and have a relatively good idea of where the routine will score. Except that is, on vault! Still after watching 11 years of competition I still do not understand how vaults score what they do. I am...

    Parents Puma Jr’s best vault ever!!

    Ok, so I know a lot of you guys have kids who regularly score in the mid or even high 9s, but Puma Jr went into her 45th lifetime meet last weekend without ever scoring a 9 on vault. So when that 9.0 came up (after she did a 1/2 on, 1/2 off which I didn’t even know she could do?! :eek: :p), she...

    Vault mental block

    I am a high school gymnast who normally competes a good half on half off vault. I’ve never had any issues with vault until this year. It used to be my favorite event but now I’m terrified of it. During practice I keep running directly into the vault after hitting the springboard. I know I can do...

    WAG Level 4 vault

    Hi there! My DD is just about to enter competition season as a level 4. For some reason she is having some trouble with vaulting without an arch.

    WAG Just a question about current WAG vaults?

    I'm a new WAG fan and I'd like to preface this by apologizing if this is a dumb question or if it has already been explained. During the 2012 and 2016 Olympic cycles many women were performing the Amanar vault ( Yurchenko with 2.5 twists), but now the most difficult vaults I've seen most people...

    WAG Deduction for vault table height?

    Just curious what the deduction would be for having the vault table at 110 instead of 115 for Level 5? At this point my daughter's vault is significantly better at 110. She still has time to improve. And I know it is totally up to the coach. Mostly just curious if she might end up with a...

    WAG How is vault scored?

    After watching USAG level 3 & 4 meets for 3 years I am still really confused about vault scoring: is it the average of 1st and 2nd vault or higher one? Does it change for higher levels? Is USAIGC same?

    Parents Vault table fears

    Hi again! Now that Susie* can kip, her next hurdle is that vault table. Going from the level 3 flatback on a mat to the giant table is rough. Did anyone else watch their kids struggle with this? Is it just a time thing? Besides the table she also struggles with punching in general (on the floor...

    WAG L3 spot on vault - deduction?

    (Hi all, I’m new here. Hopefully this will post correctly.) I’m including a link to the video of my daughter’s coach giving her a spot on her vault - The judge somehow didn’t notice the coach had spotted her, so didn’t give a deduction (score given was 8.6). Judge asked coach after if she...
