Raj competed this ”Bhavsar” 2009 at the Moscow World Cup. Something like a Tkatchev starting one end of the bars, finishing on the other.

tumbling trampoline to uphill vault
Just finished 8 intensive days at Phoenix in Vancouver. Thanks sincerely to Kyna Fletcher and her excellent staff.
It was Gymnastics Canada coach education. Organized by Jeff Thomson of Gymnastics British Columbia.
Phoenix is a great host for events like this. They have an excellent facility. One unique training set-up is a vault horse built into the spotting deck at the end of the tumbling trampoline.
Fantastic. It’s a full-time uphill vault station where no fussing with spring boards is necessary. We used it for Yurchenko and forward approach vaults. It can drop low for the little ones. Or be raised for advanced gymnasts.
That was designed by coach Doug Odin who builds high quality specialized spotting platforms for Phoenix and other clubs.
