Poor quality video. But the ultimate in difficulty for Artistic gymnasts.

Opening floor pass for 2005 World Trials.

Justin was injured in 2007 and did not competing Floor at the recent VISA Championships. He did vault and was quoted as saying he expects to compete Floor at Olympic trials later this month.

Justin Spring – triple twisting Tsukahara vault. (Kazamatsu with extra double twist.) … AKA “Lopez” after Eric Lopez of Cuba, I believe.

Here’s the same bloody difficult vault done by a Russian gymnast. Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

From Tsukahara, I feel 3 twists is more difficult than from Yurchenko as shown here by Sasha Artemev in 2007.

Still, 3 twists are rarely seen in Men’s vault. More popular are double somersault vaults in 2008.
