Chusovitina 15,600 vault

Here’s what FIG judges award a 15,600. 😦

When are FIG WTC going to fix the vault rules?

Second vault very impressive, however. She’s in good shape for Rio.

She got a 15.6 because she got an 8.6 execution score. Once you deduct for a fall, you can’t take any other landing deductions, so all they could deduct after 1 point was her form, and it wasn’t that bad. .1 on the preflight, .1 for the legs in post flight. Then deduction for underrotation with fall (.3). What I listed would be an 8.5. Possibly another tenth for lack of height. There’s no way this vault goes below 15 judging by the code’s standards.

  Right. That’s why we need to fix the Code. Double the landing deductions at minimum.
