still looking for the perfect Yurchenko 1/1

We’ve been looking for vaults as good or better than NCAA Ashley Postell who scored 10 recently from one judge.

Another excellent version, and different. Jana Komrskova (CZE) Vault Finals Worlds 2007. (second vault) Thanks blogomment for this link.

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

There are so many great Yurchenko 1/1s, I’d best stop posting them. UNLESS I find one that is unquestionably undeductable. (That means feet together on the beatboard.)

GymPress editor Valentin Uzunov likes the incredible technique and execution of Courtney McCool. (My pick for 2004 Olympic champion. … Who won again? Oh right, Carly Patterson.)

Here’s her 2004 USA Championships Yurchenko 3/2. (no stick)

The GAGE gymnasts, including McCool, coached by Al Fong and Armine Barutyan-Fong invariably have superb form.
