Floor Kasamatsu Drill Over Folded Mat

This drill is one of the simplest introductory approaches to Kasamatsu vaults for those gymnasts that already know the Tsukahara.  Gymnasts who twist in the opposite direction of the round-off should practice different drills than this one.  The hands are placed down one at a time.  The gymnast pushes off the floor with the second hand to create a flying phase high enough to clear the folded mat.
