Vault Level 9 Bars Routine:
Gymnast starts on the vault runway.
1. Gymnast sprints down the runway and hits the springboard.
2. With explosive power, the gymnast performs a dynamic Kip pike on the bars. This involves swinging up with straight arms and lifting the legs up towards the ceiling in a piked position.
3. From the Kip pike, the gymnast transitions into a Kip cast to handstand. This skill requires them to generate enough momentum to swing their body to a vertical handstand position on the bars.
4. Immediately after achieving the handstand, the gymnast executes a pirouette bail. This move involves releasing one hand from the bar while spinning the body in a circular motion, then catching the bar again.
5. Next, the gymnast performs another Kip pike on the bars, repeating the earlier skill.
6. Following the second Kip pike, the gymnast flawlessly executes another Kip cast to handstand, showcasing their control and strength on the bars.
7. With the last Kip cast to handstand, the gymnast prepares for the dismount.
8. The gymnast performs a powerful double back off the bars. This dismount involves executing two backward somersaults in a tucked position before landing on the mat.
9. The gymnast sticks the landing with precision and stability, showing their mastery of the routine.
The routine ends with the gymnast saluting the judges and receiving applause from the audience.
