Description of a Vault

The gymnast must perform one vault except in Qualifications for Vault Finals and in Vault Finals, where he must show two vaults from different Vault Groups. Each vault begins with a run and a take-off from both feet (with or without a round off) to the vault board with legs together and is executed with a brief support phase on the table with two hands. The vault may contain single or multiple turns around the two axes of the body. After the first vault, the gymnast returns without delay to the starting position and, at the signal of the D1 judge, performs his second vault
