The focus is on executing a speed step effectively, emphasizing the importance of approach speed. It begins with a demonstration of coming in fast, landing on a specific wall foot, and smoothly transitioning to hand placement. Each attempt aims to improve precision and speed, reinforcing the idea that while the technique remains consistent, the implementation should utilize greater momentum.
Different phases of the speed step are highlighted, where maintaining the right technique is crucial for both safety and efficiency. The demonstration stresses the importance of landing correctly to avoid the risks associated with jumping forward into a standard step vault. Instead, the chosen method provides a safer alternative by integrating hand usage effectively after landing on the foot.
The overall goal is to master the speed step, allowing for a more dynamic and fluid performance in movement. By practicing this technique, one can build confidence in using increased speed for execution, leading to improved stability and control during performance tasks.
Key points:
- Emphasizing the need for speed and precision in executing the speed step, particularly in landing.
- Highlighting the importance of safety by landing correctly to avoid risks associated with traditional vault techniques.
- Encouraging practice to enhance fluidity and confidence in using increased momentum during movements.
Perform a speed-step at jogging speed on a hip-height (or greater) wall. This is to demonstrate you can move into the speed-step the way it is intended.
You must jump into the one-foot landing, where your entire body is off the ground at a single moment. I.e. your back foot should have left the floor before the front foot lands on the wall.
Hand must land facing forwards on the palm.
Three repetitions on each side (left & right) must be shown.
The wall width must be standard brick-length or less.
