Watch as Coach Bryan Stith explains, and jumpers demonstrate these bounding drills. The first drill, Continuous Takeoff, is a long jump drill that helps prepare for the takeoff and strengthens the takeoff leg. Coach also reviews the Single Leg Bound and Double-Double Triple Jump drills.
Watch as Coach Bryan Stith explains, and horizontal jumpers demonstrate these acceleration drills. He will explain in detail the following acceleration drills: 3-step acceleration, 3-step acceleration with a falling start, 5-step acceleration with a falling start, and the wicket acceleration.
Watch as Coach Bryan Stith explains, and long jumpers demonstrate this ramp takeoff drill. Coach uses this drill later in the season as the jumper must have proficient movement and consistency at the board. This drill allows the jumper to use the takeoff to transfer into a functional flight. The jumper will not land in the pit, but they are working on the vertical and flying in the air with nice tall posture.
