Some Yang Hak Seon News Update

He competed at a recent Korean gymnastic championships. It will prepare him for the Universiade competition that will be held in Gwangju this July. There is also a small clip of him promoting Universiade.

I wish him all the best of luck. I'm still a fan of Yang.

Quick Thoughts on MAG TF/QF Universiade 2013

Alright so here is my very quick recap and impressions of this event. These are unofficial scores. The broadcast only showed the last subdivision.

1) Russia 273.150 2) Ukraine 3) Japan 269.700. Yesterday I promised that I would put the results in but I'm sure my small amount of followers know where to find results. In case you don't. I like to check this site gymnastics results.

I think Russia did pretty well they were under pressure and they delivered. They had some mistakes but nothing too serious and costly. They showed some routines of the Ukrainians and Japanese but not enough. Japan pretty much had a B team compared to Russia's A team. Even though Yusuke Tanaka didn't make Japan's world team he did okay here. The broadcast showed a lot of him and he made it to some finals, yay.

I heard the results of Yang Hak Seon was great on VT, he wasn't in this subdivision. I'm hoping all the best for him in VT finals.

One of his competition will be Denis Ablyazin. He did a nice Tsuk dbl pike with a 0.3 step back IMO. His second vault FHS 5/2 with a 0.1 step back. VT1 15.350 VT2 15.400 AVG 15.375. I wonder if he will do his Li Xiaopeng vault in finals.

His floor routine was good too for 15.650. He did, fwd 5/2, 2/1 twist DLO, fwd 2/1 twist + 2/1 front tuck, Thomas Stretched, Japanese hstd, dbl pike Arabian, bwd 3/2 + fwd 1/1, 3/1 twist dismount.

Yang Hak Seon's Kas 5/2!

At 2013 South Korean Nationals. He fell but still cool. I saw via gymnasticscoaching

Yang & Nguyen 2013 French Cup Vaults

Yang Hak Seon of S. Korea and Nguyen Ha Thanh of Vietnam went 1-2 at the French Cup on vault.

Yang didn't do the FHS 3/1 or his training upgrade 5/2 Kas. Only FHS 5/2 (6.0) & Kas 2/1 (6.0) VT Score: 14.500

Nguyen did a cool piked Melinassanidis (6.0) his second VT Kas 3/2 (5.6) VT Score: 13.666

Yang Hak Seon Training Upgrade VT (5/2 Kasamatsu))

Here is a video of Yang training the Kasamatsu 5/2 (2 1/2) vault or 7/2 (3 1/2). I'm still confused about the differences but heck it doesn't really matter. I just say Tsuk 7/2. In the world of gymnastics Tsuk/Kas are acceptable terms IMO. I saw this news on gymnasticscoaching   and today I saw this video on Youtube

Good luck Chen Yibing and Yang Hak Seon.

Yang Hak Seon's Documentary

Someone needs to make a gif of Yang Hak Seon's 3/1 FHS vault. Here is a mini documentary of the 2011 world champ on vault. His vault is worth 7.4!

Yang Hak Seon For 2012 VT Gold

Remember Yang Hak Seon? Well he was the man who did the clean difficult front handspring 3/1 and got it named after him in Tokyo team finals. His vault is so difficult that it is rated at 7.4, the highest VT d-score. He is a twisting machine. His second vault is 3/1 Tsuk, which is also difficult. He is the current reigning world vault champ and he could be golden in London. The "YANG" is incredible. I wonder if we'll ever see someone else perform it as clean as Yang?
