In this session, the focus is on practicing a maneuver known as the high slide vault, a technique where one performs a slide while transitioning over an obstacle to land on the other side. This technique can be particularly effective when there is a rail or edge with a drop on the other side, allowing for variations in height and drop intensity as the practice progresses. The practitioner demonstrates the movements involved, emphasizing the importance of maintaining control while executing the maneuver.
Practicing with both hands and legs, the individual highlights how to properly position oneself to ensure a safe landing. The importance of body mechanics is key, as they demonstrate how to use their hands to control speed and stability during the drop. With the goal of increasing height gradually, the individual encourages careful attention to landing techniques, aiming to land on the balls of the feet to absorb impact effectively.
The overall aim of this practice is to build confidence and control while executing the high slide vault, which ultimately opens up opportunities for additional movements post-landing. Continuously increasing the challenge by adjusting the height of the slide is encouraged, and practicing both sides helps in developing balanced skills. This exercise promotes a sense of achievement and the capability to transition smoothly to further actions in a dynamic environment.
Key points:
- The high slide vault technique involves transitioning over an obstacle while maintaining control and ensuring safe landings.
- Proper body mechanics and hand positioning are essential for controlling descent and stability during the maneuver.
- Gradual height increases and practicing both sides are critical for developing confidence and balanced skills in performing the vault.
Slide-vault over a hip-height obstacle (wall, block or rail) at a constant speed, with no slowing down or pausing. You must be going at a jogging-pace or faster.
The must also be a greater drop on the far slide of the vault that is hip-height or more to the bas of the obstacle. (Effectively making the height of the floor to the top of the obstacle twice hip-height.
Land on one foot and still run out of the vault at a continuous speed.
