Attack the springboard!

Session 3 of the Stanford Open included a Vault run to springboard launch.
I found that the initial leap onto the springboard afforded the gymnasts their maximum self expression.
Many other young men on various gymnastic apparatus can be found at http://mrmark.smugmug.com/share/3Y7pWIUgofWpU .
Information on the meet is available at http://www.stanfordopen.com.

You stopped him at a great moment. Looks like the coach is tense also.

He's so intense! Wonderful shot. Clean, crisp and just the right amount of motion and DOF!
