The turn vault is a crucial skill in gymnastics, especially when performing over a drop. The importance lies in gradually increasing the heights of the jumps to build confidence and control while executing the maneuver. By practicing the turn vault, one can ensure they are more comfortable landing on a wall instead of potentially falling into a gap below.
When performing the turn vault, it's essential to maintain proper hand positioning for stability and control. The left hand should be positioned under the right hand while approaching the turn, which helps maintain contact and balance. This technique aids in executing a safer landing on the wall, providing room for adjustments if the jump doesn't go as planned.
Gradual progression is key to mastering the turn vault, as doing so allows individuals to adapt to real-world scenarios involving height differences and drops. With practice, one can gain the necessary skills to navigate more challenging situations confidently. Overall, comfortability with the technique plays a significant role in ensuring safety and effectiveness during execution.
Key Points:
- The turn vault is essential for building confidence when jumping over a drop.
- Proper hand positioning and technique are critical for a successful landing.
- Gradual progression in height fosters comfort and skill, preparing for real-world challenges.
Perform the full turn-vault with precision and with a height on the far-side greater than hip-height.
This is to demonstrate a useful turn-vault that has a small drop on the other side of the railing.
Demonstrate a level-6 turn-vault, with both feet landing perfectly on the edge of a wall that is hip-height or greater and no more than half a step away from being under the rail. (The rail must be within half a step to the edge of the wall).
The rail must be hip-height or greater.
