Video Details

The discussion focuses on improving the technique for performing a step vault with an emphasis on building momentum and speed. Initially, the individual is encouraged to practice the motion at a slower pace to get accustomed to stepping and jumping. As proficiency increases, the goal transitions to executing the vault at speeds between 70% to 100%, allowing for fluid movement and a smooth landing.

The importance of understanding the timing, distance, and foot placement is highlighted. It's crucial to adapt to varying situations where a calculated approach may not always be feasible, emphasizing the necessity of practice and experience. The strategy includes being aware of the proximity needed to execute the vault effectively, honing the skill through consistent repetition.

Ultimately, mastering the step vault entails not only physical preparation but also mental adaptability. A focus on maintaining comfort and confidence at different speeds ensures the individual can perform the move effectively, regardless of the circumstances. The key takeaway is that continuous practice leads to a better execution of the technique, enabling one to manage obstacles without rigid planning.

Key Points:

  1. Mastering the step vault requires progressively increasing speed while maintaining control and comfort.
  2. Understanding timing, distance, and foot positioning is essential for effective execution.
  3. Consistent practice allows for adaptability in varied situations, leading to improved performance.

The Lesson

Using the same step-vault technique as level-2, using one hand and one foot, you must demonstrate entering and exiting the vault at speed.

Speed must be at jogging-pace or more and there must be minimal slow-down during the vault. A consistency in flowing over the obstacle is key.

You must land one-foot and run out of the vault.

You must start more than 5-paces away (a standard walking-pace) and finish 5-paces away on the other side of the obstacle.

Wall must be hip-height or greater, with a standard brick-length width.

5.92
we talked about doing a step Vault with
8.519
momentum the next stage is going at
12.12
speed so the momentum was a few steps in
15.32
and getting used getting on and putting
17.52
it the next stage is now building up to
20.96
your at speed you know between 70 to 90
26.16
100% speed and getting over that stepf
30
with ease and being able to run out of
32.88
it as well so running out of it is
35.64
requiring landing on that inside foot
38.079
and just bring that back leg off and
40.12
keep moving
41.719
forwards so
45.32
um the planning of steps is not going to
49.28
be wise here because you're not always
51.84
going to have to do it or you're not
53.6
going to be able to do it because you
55.8
might just need to be running and you've
57.879
got a vault that fence or that wall and
60.68
you can't count your steps out this
63.719
comes down to just experience and just
66.56
doing it over and over and over again
68.32
and
69.64
understanding how close you have to be
72.52
to be able to do or perform that step
75.119
for and yeah you just got to keep doing
77.6
it so you understand how far away you
80.32
need to be so let's give this a go a
82.36
little bit more speed this time and yeah
85.64
doing the step for over and around let's
90.52
give it another crack so from
93.28
[Applause]
96.28
here
97.799
okay so yeah that is the step Vault with
102.36
speed um practice it make sure that
105.52
you're really comfortable at this point
108.36
getting over it getting that hand on
110.399
that foot just Taps really um and yeah
114.439
you you're able to perform it in any at
117.799
any speed effectively
