The next phase of the speed vault involves utilizing both hands while making contact with a proper wall. Unlike previous methods, the focus here is on ensuring that no foot lands on top of the wall, which emphasizes a side motion for the body. As the technique progresses, participants must navigate a higher wall, transitioning to flat hands—a movement reminiscent of a cat pass, but with distinct differences in foot placement.
In the execution of this technique, the initial jump requires landing on both feet, with an understanding that while the hands engage with the wall, the body continues to shift laterally. Importantly, the foot placement should not rest atop the wall but rather allow for a smooth transition onto one foot as landing occurs. This modification is designed to build skills progressively, ultimately preparing participants for more complex vaults.
The ultimate goal is to master a speed vault using one hand, which will be introduced after solidifying the two-handed approach. The stages of practice are crucial to ensuring a seamless evolution into the one-handed movement, with each iteration contributing to overall proficiency. By breaking down the training into manageable steps, individuals can achieve greater confidence and technique in their vaulting skills.
Key points:
- The speed vault technique requires both hands and must avoid foot placement atop the wall, emphasizing lateral body movement.
- The initial movements incorporate two-foot jumps and eventual one-foot landings to build skill progression.
- The training aims to transition to a one-handed speed vault, with each stage designed to enhance technique and confidence.
Demonstrate a standing speed vault over a hip-high wall or greater that is a standard brick-length wide or less, landing on both feet. Use both hands to generate more pulling momentum to get over the wall.
Example:
- Start standing in front of the wall and place both hands on top, palm down facing forwards.
- Jump up, leaning onto the right arm.
- Bring your hips up high and bring your knees up to your chest.
- Remove the left hand off the wall.
- Pass both feet over the wall to the left of your right hand.
- Land on both feet the other side of the wall.
- You can be orientated at any angle.
You must perform this three times on each side.
Hands must be flat and no steepled fingers.
No feet should touch the top of the wall.
Wall must be hip-height or greater.

5.52all right the next stage of the speed8.2vault is using two hands but now on a11.799proper wall and no foot landing on top15.559so the body is still going to the side19.32this time you have to go on a little bit22of a higher wall and flat hands it's not25.359a cat pass it's kind of like a cat pass27.48but the body goes to the side feet do30.039not land on top so from34.76here over like37.32that the jump is two feet the uh hands42.399are two hands and you can land one foot45.28so from here over land one foot so this50again is going to help us get to that52.079point where we're doing a speed V where54.039it's the same thing but onehanded we're57.039building up to that in stages
1 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:11,000 all right the next stage of the speed 2 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:15,000 vault is using two hands but now on a 3 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:18,000 proper wall and no foot landing on top 4 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:21,000 so the body is still going to the side 5 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:25,000 this time you have to go on a little bit 6 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:27,000 of a higher wall and flat hands it's not 7 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000 a cat pass it's kind of like a cat pass 8 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:34,000 but the body goes to the side feet do 9 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:37,000 not land on top so from 10 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:41,000 here over like 11 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:44,000 that the jump is two feet the uh hands 12 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:49,000 are two hands and you can land one foot 13 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:51,000 so from here over land one foot so this 14 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,000 again is going to help us get to that 15 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:56,000 point where we're doing a speed V where 16 00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:01,000 it's the same thing but onehanded we're 17 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,000 building up to that in stages
