Sole circle variations are easiest.
I love this kind of skill. But only need to see ONE / routine.
No need for FIG to devalue. But the extra swing to overshoot should be deducted. The uprise to Free Hip or Stalder allowed.

HU YIZHOU reports for IG:
Olympic champion Yang Hak Seon bagged not only vault, but also the all-around and two other event titles at the Korean national trials held Friday and Saturday …
Yang Hak Seon was definitely the spotlight as he is now a top-level celebrity in Korea. So many camera crews from a number of broadcasters were welcomed to the tiny training hall that walking around became a problem. Yang landed his namesake vault (handspring front salto with triple twist, 6.4 Difficulty) with ease, but fell on his second vault (Tsukahara with 3.5 twist) on both days, which was the exact same thing that happened at the last trials in May.
Still, Yang told the media he would like to land the new vault as the Yang II and win the gold medal at the upcoming world championships …
Yang Hak Seon and Wang Wonyeong will lead the men’s team to the 2013 Worlds, along with Park Minsoo, Bae Ga Ram, Kim Jihoon and Kim Hee Hoon. The women will be represented by Sung Ji Hye, Kim Juran and Park Jisoo.
Scores are low for MAG. There’s more potential for WAG.
Here’s that Yang II in training.
