Anon Yurchenko full on vault

[Anonymous (3e4d)]

My 13 year old daughter just started landing the yurchenko full on vault. The coaches all of a sudden are giving her a lot of attention. Curious as to why? Is this a big deal skill?

Yes, this skill is quite a big deal, and it's very exciting! Many of the current senior elites in the US are doing a double twist of the same vault so it's a great progression.

In addition to senior elites performing the double-twisting version, there are many college gymnasts who compete the Yurchenko full (9.95 SV in college).

That’s really great to hear. She has wanted to get that skill for some time. She is apparently a strong vaulter. What is the difficulty value for that skill for junior elites?
