The slide pull mounting technique involves a rapid upward movement to gain speed and maintain momentum while transitioning onto a rail. The primary focus during execution should be on one foot, which helps in achieving balance and control, while also allowing performers to pay special attention to the more challenging inside leg. The key is to establish grip and turn toward a perpendicular position, ensuring that the foot placement is done effectively to maintain stability.
A successful slide pull requires pushing off with the ball of the foot, which is crucial for achieving the necessary control while on the rail. Proper arm positioning enhances balance during this maneuver, as arms should extend straight in front. Additionally, the technique emphasizes the importance of constant practice, as consistency can be difficult to achieve.
Overall, mastery of the slide pull mount is achievable through diligent practice, and becoming proficient in the technique can significantly improve performance. It's vital to focus on gradually building up the skill set required, paying attention to footwork and balance, and utilizing the body's natural mechanics effectively during the execution of this advanced movement.
Key Points:
- The slide pull mounting technique emphasizes rapid upward movement and balance, focusing on one foot while ensuring proper foot placement.
- Using the ball of the foot for control and maintaining arm position for balance are critical components of executing the maneuver successfully.
- Consistent practice is essential for mastering the slide pull mount, allowing for improved confidence and skill in the technique.
This movement is to demonstrate that you can mount a rail at an angle with momentum.
- Start facing the rail.
- Place both hands further down the rail to your right. The left hand should be past the right hip bone.
- Pull the rail as you jump along the rail to the right.
- Both feet should land on the rail to the right of both hands.
- Release the rail with the hands and finish in a crouched position.
You must stay in the crouch for 10 seconds on the rail.
You should have travelled along the rail more than 2-steps.
The rail must be circular and no greater than standard scaffolding bar width.
You must repeat three times, moving on both sides.

1 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:14,000 okay that is a slide pull so with this 2 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,000 mounting technique the idea is that you 3 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:21,000 are going to pull slide upwards and then 4 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,000 Mount this is a much faster movement 5 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,000 it's usually used for kind of continuing 6 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:30,000 on and doing other things but getting 7 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:32,000 onto the rail um at speed is kind of of 8 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:35,000 the idea here you can build this up 9 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:37,000 again uh focus on just one foot so as 10 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:40,000 you slide just focus on getting that one 11 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:43,000 foot on you can then focus on the inside 12 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:46,000 leg that's the harder one so as you pull 13 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,000 try and get that inside one up and then 14 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,000 try and do both 15 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:55,000 um the pull is what's going to give you 16 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:59,000 the momentum to get up and turn you're 17 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:02,000 sort of coming along the rail and then 18 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:04,000 turning in to your perpendicular and you 19 00:00:62,000 --> 00:01:05,000 really want to get the ball of the foot 20 00:00:64,000 --> 00:01:07,000 doing the work again here because the 21 00:00:66,000 --> 00:01:12,000 ball of the foot is what's going to give 22 00:00:68,000 --> 00:01:15,000 you control when you are on the rail um 23 00:00:73,000 --> 00:01:16,000 make sure yeah that your arms are once 24 00:00:75,000 --> 00:01:18,000 you're pulled they come straight out in 25 00:00:76,000 --> 00:01:21,000 front of you that's also going to help 26 00:00:78,000 --> 00:01:27,000 with the balance um but yeah that is the 27 00:00:82,000 --> 00:01:29,000 slide pull mount um very hard to do uh 28 00:00:88,000 --> 00:01:32,000 consistently but practice just makes 29 00:00:90,000 --> 00:01:35,000 perfect again um just keep going at it 30 00:00:93,000 --> 00:01:38,000 keep practicing and uh yeah it'll come 31 00:00:95,000 --> 00:01:38,000 along
