This thread is for the discussion of the movement Turn Vault / half turn vault
The 'turn vault' is similar to a two hand vault. This technique allows you to pass over an obstacle and get into the position seen in a arm jump/climb up. These are a good technique to learn as they can greatly reduce the height/drop of a "jump", and therefore, have less wear and tear on the legs into the next movements.

yes it reduces the drop depending on how tall you are.

the fall is reduced depending on how far you are hanging down. thats the idea

we're talking about a turn vault not hanging from a wall to get down.
you're right for what you say, but for a turn vault, you're in the arm jump position and down

I beleive it is when you grab onto the same railing/wall or whatever your vaulting over on the opposite side from where you start. uk.youtube.com/watch?v=85aGSm8_iA8I personally think it reduces the drop incredibley and should be used by everyone, I use it alot, because its cold and I dont like rolling on the floor
