From reading previous posts, it appears the number of springs used in a springboard is based on several factors. My daughter is an L9, about 85 lbs. She has been using 6 springs since L7 til L9 to do her yurchenko at her previous gym. Her new gym uses 4 springs for everyone and that is now what she is using. She said it is a lot easier. Can someone explain the benefit or disadvantage, if any, of using more (or less) springs? Is it better to use less springs and gradually increase the springs or get used to more springs from the start?
