Word on the street is, they may be devaluing the Chenko Full in NCAA. Meaning the 1 1/2 and other vaults are going to be more sought after .
the reason tsuks have fallen out of favor is because the yurchenko entry is easier for small gymnasts to generate the power necessary to complete the vault. i agree with previous posters that the tsuk should be valued higher than yurchenko because having the power necessary to complete the skill well should be rewarded. but i'm confused as to why a kaz is worth doing but a tsuk full (simply twisting in the other direction) is not worth doing. that's ludicrous. i twisted a tsuk full (lefty entry onto vault, twist right) which if you think about it is more "correct" than twisting left. if you are performing a half on as a lefty your body is technically twisting right in that portion of the skill, so not sure why twisting back the way you came would be the only "correct" way to do it. my coach growing up taught me a tsuk full and my teammate a kaz at the same time because we each performed it the way that was most natural for us as individuals. so please don't discriminate against tsuk fulls!I think tsuks are still worthwhile for those who are likely to eventually do kazamatsus. If they don't naturally twist the correct direction for a kaz, then I'd probably skip the tsuk as well.
