Two Handed Wall

1m 6s

Video Details

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:

  1. The speed vault technique requires both hands and must avoid foot placement atop the wall, emphasizing lateral body movement.
  2. The initial movements incorporate two-foot jumps and eventual one-foot landings to build skill progression.
  3. The training aims to transition to a one-handed speed vault, with each stage designed to enhance technique and confidence.

The Lesson

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:

  1. Start standing in front of the wall and place both hands on top, palm down facing forwards.
  2. Jump up, leaning onto the right arm.
  3. Bring your hips up high and bring your knees up to your chest.
  4. Remove the left hand off the wall.
  5. Pass both feet over the wall to the left of your right hand.
  6. Land on both feet the other side of the wall.
  7. 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.

vault is using two hands but now on a

this time you have to go on a little bit

of a higher wall and flat hands it's not

a cat pass it's kind of like a cat pass

not land on top so from

here over like

that the jump is two feet the uh hands
42.399
are two hands and you can land one foot
45.28
so from here over land one foot so this

again is going to help us get to that

point where we're doing a speed V where
54.039
it's the same thing but onehanded we're
