Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of this paper is the computerized video analysis aiming at the features of the key elements of sports technique of Yurchenko vault in women’s artistic gymnastics. The study was conducted during the National Master Championship, Oneşti,16-18.XI.2012. 6 junior female gymnasts aged 12 to 14, members of Junior Olympic team of Deva and finalists of this apparatus, took part in this research. The biomechanical analysis was performed by means of a specialized program, Physics ToolKit Version 6.0, monitoring the key elements of sports technique (according to Boloban, V., 1990): start position of the body (SP), multiplication of body position (MP) and final position (FP) of the body. The results of the study highlight the comparative biomechanical analysis of the key elements of Yurchenko vault performed by junior female gymnasts. The biomechanical analysis of Yurchenko vault pointed out the characteristics of key elements and the influence of the biomechanical indicators upon the technical execution of the vault, which confirms the hypothesis proposed and the performances achieved in competition.
