My daughter is a very good vault competitor, but she seems to be stuck in the 9.45 and 9.50 range on her scores. I took some video from various angles this weekend of her vaulting to analyze. These nine vaults are very representative of her normal vaults and I slowed them down to 1/8 speed. The truth is, I don't have the technical knowledge to break them down well. Obvious things like when she dives slightly sideways or when she hits too low on the board, I can pick out. It's the other things like nuances of body positioning that I'm missing.
So my question is this for you coaches, judges, and techies- Where is she losing points? I am not looking to go around her coaches (who I have IMMENSE respect for), but rather to educate myself on what to look for. I also set it to music from a great band that had their music on Grey's Anatomy as a little incentive to watch.
Thanks in advance!!!
