Bronze Vault warm-up timing?

• A. 30 seconds / 1 warm-up vault
• B. 60 seconds / 2 warm-up vaults
• C. 45 seconds / 2 warm-up vaults
• D. 30 seconds / 2 warm-up vaults

Answer: (A)

Warm-up timing for Vault at the Bronze level is set to 30 seconds for a single warm-up vault. This short, standardized window gives a gymnast enough time to rehearse the run and setup and feel the board before the actual vault, while keeping the meet moving smoothly and consistently for all competitors. Longer warm-ups or multiple warm-up vaults aren’t used at Bronze; those allowances appear in other levels or formats, and adding them here would slow the schedule and introduce variation.
