    WAG Yurchenko Vault?

    I am just trying to understand. Is there a direct connection between the handspring vault and the Yurchenko vault? In other words the only way a kid will have a dynamic yurchenko vault is if they have an equally dynamic handspring vault. I have heard conflicting ideas and I am just trying to...

    WAG Vault question-is yurchenko always better choice?

    Is the yurchenko considered the most difficult and most desirable vault at the highest levels of gymnastics? It seems that the tsuk is prettier (in my opinion) and FHS vaults have some pretty amazing levels of difficulty when you think of the power it takes to do it with the flipping elements...

    WAG Triple Twisting Yurchenko: Who and When?

    I'm wondering about when we will see a triple twisting yurchenko. Hopefully sooner rather than later. Mykayla might do it but I'm starting to think otherwise. Maybe its not possible with current equipment. Well, anyway, this the Triple Twisting Yuchenko Forum

    WAG Yurchenko vault question

    This is probably a stupid question and I apologize in advance for my stupidity ;-) When girls are first learning the yurchenko vault, what is the most difficult part to learn? The round off entry or the flip on the post flight? My presumption (ignorant presumption) is that if the ro entry is...

    WAG silly Yurchenko question

    Why do you have to flip the Yurchenko in order to compete it? Why not start out with just a ROBHS over the table? (No, my six-year-old is not training Yurchenkos. This is just idle curiosity based on watching the big girls.)

    Parents 1st Yurchenko

    Found a new gym. And daughter did her 1st Yurchenko last night. I couldn't believe it. She was so happy, this place is going to be great for her. Still working on basic form issues but this coach after watching her has her training in a group of 7's training 8. She is so tiny (remember she's 7)...

    WAG Flipping the yurchenko

    I have a gymnast who is more than ready to flip the yurchenko but she is scared. She has very good timers and block and height is not an issue. She tells me that she doesn't know how to flip without touching the ground. I have never had a gymnast with this issue before! So, I'm asking if anyone...

    Coaches Yurchenko progressions

    Hi all, One of my gymnasts is ready to begin learning yurchenko vaults and I'm more than rusty on the progressions and technique required. It's been a very long time since I last had anything to do with teaching one and none of our gymnasts has ever competed one. I am a co-head coach and the...

    WAG Yurchenko half (1/2) on vaults

    When doing a Yurchenko half on...should a gymnast be perfectly square with their lower body when hitting the board? I've watched many videos and have noticed that a majority of gymnasts performing this vault are slightly (or majorly) skewed when hitting the board. However...I have seen some...

    WAG Tsuk v. Yurchenko

    This question was mentioned in a different thread, but I didn't want to get it off topic. DD's new gym has L8s do tsuks. Her best friend just went to a new gym and their 8s compete yurchenkos. Do they score the same? Why do some gyms seem to favor tsuks and other yurchenkos? Many level 9s...

    Is a double twisted yurchenko vault the same

    as an Amanar? And Amanar is the person it is named after? Stupid question probably, but it's not like it will be my first (or last!) on this forum and elsewhere, lol.

    WAG help with yurchenko

    My daughter has been working on her yurchenko for a while. According to her coach, her timer/approach is fine, however, she is having trouble with the back part of the vault. Her coach tells her that as she flips off the table she is tucking her knees up and bring her shoulders down (kind of a...

    Yurchenko setting

    I have my board pretty close to the table, all the way in with the guard all the way in and my hand Matt is about 5 inches away from the board. I find that everything is pretty crunched. My question is how do you know how far the board and hand Matt should be? If it goes by the height of the...
