Control isn't an issue for anyone who masters this technique (which is easy to do) and most kids are pretty consistent with the bottom hand grip.
If they're not, then it's not a good technique for them!
Yeah, well if that isnt something that would pose a problem to the vaulter then I think the push plant method wouldn't be a bad resolution for vaulters who are willing to give it a try. I could see how it could improve a plant as the pole drop isn't a factor and all you have to do is stick those hands in the air
