Technique Tuesday: U of Minnesota Traveling Rig Vault Station
Jun 22, 2010
In this week's gymnastics technique video, Coach Jim Stephenson expands on the drill you saw in part 1 of the video. They have a traveling rig connected to a twisting belt set up above their trampoline. Jim takes us through the drills they're able to do on the station to teach all types of vaults: yurchenkos, tsukaharas, and even handspring entry vaults. The biggest advantage of a drill like this is that it's low impact for the gymnast meaning they can do high reps of them without the pounding on their bodies.
