The hand-held pole harness is a portable, coach-operated training device that helps skaters safely practice high-rotation jumps. It consists of:
-
A waist belt adjustable from 20 to 40 inches in diameter
-
Durable steel wire rope assembly
-
Hand grips and a rubber bungee tube
-
Quick-release carabiners and fittings
The harness enables real-time correction, guidance, and support during takeoff, rotation, and landing, making it a vital tool for any jump-focused training program.
Key Features:
-
Durable Steel Wire Rope: Provides strength and flexibility while withstanding repeated stress.
-
Adjustable Extension: The pole extends up to 90 inches, allowing coaches to assist from a safe distance.
-
Comfort-Focused Design: The belt distributes weight evenly around the skater’s torso, improving comfort and balance.
-
Quick Clip Connectors: Easy to attach and detach, ideal for fast-paced training sessions.
How It Works:
- Secure the Waist Belt: Place the padded belt around the skater’s waist and adjust it for a snug fit.
- Connect the Rope Assembly: Use carabiners to attach the steel wire rope to the belt and the pole’s grip bar.
- Coach Holds the Bar: The coach grips the end of the pole, allowing control over the skater’s jump rotation and positioning.
- Skater Jumps: As the skater initiates a jump, the coach uses the pole to stabilize, assist with lift and rotation, and help guide a safe landing.
