Depth Jump to Hurdle Hop
The depth jump that rebounds over a mini hurdle: step off the box, land and hop the hurdle at once.
How to do it
Setup
Standing on a low box, a mini hurdle a short hop in front of the landing spot.
Steps
- Step off the box and land on both feet.
- Rebound at once, knees up, over the hurdle.
- Land soft past the hurdle, knees over the toes, and walk back.
Common mistakes
A long pause between the drop and the hop: the contact is one quick bounce. Hurdle too far or too tall: set it so the rebound clears it easily. Landing after the hurdle on straight legs: absorb it with bent knees.
Breathing
Exhale on the jump, inhale stepping back up.
