I would like to start working on another vault rather than my FH.
I am definitely a powerful gymnast. My FH on vault is pretty good I would say.
I want to compete it next October, so about 6 months. Of course, I will decide it with my coach and we will try different drills. However, I was searching this forum for some tsuk and yuri thread and found one thread that said:
"With a little luck, a kid with a good L7 handspring and no other vault specific training will be able to reasonable compete a Tsuk the following season. The Yurchencko may look ready for next season, but that's about as far as I'd let it go, so if they want to move from L7 to L8 and take a Yuchencko with them they need to start progressions when they move up to L7."
So basically, it is not too unrealistic to compete a tsuk in October?
So what my coach told me and what also seems logically, the Yurchenko can generate far more power than the Tsuk if done right, which might be an advantage when it comes to twisting. But if your are powerful, a Tsuk is not that hard.
As I am pretty good at blocking, I think I would go for the Tsuk. Is it unrealistic to be ready to compete in October if I start training now? Is it true that the Yurchenko needs A LOT more timers?
I am thankful for every opinion, no matter if it is from a coach, a parent or a gymnast!
