Jump Harness Training
Jump Harness Training (Overhead Track and "Fishing Pole")
Portable
"Fishing Pole" and "Overhead track" Harnesses available for spotting advanced
double and triple jumps! A jumping harness is a necessity in skating's highly
competitive world. Jumping Harnesses can dramatically reduce the learning time
for double, triple and quad jumps. The Coach is able to direct the take-off
curve, keep the Skater straight in the air, and keep the Skater's back in
position upon landing. Down-time due to injury can be minimized. The coach can
help instill confidence in the Skater's ability to do the difficult jumps and
have them avoid practicing mistakes.
