The lowdown

A running vault where one hand touches the obstacle and your body passes over it sideways like a long hurdle step, landing on one foot and running on.

How to learn it

  1. Run

    Jog in and keep the rhythm through the take-off.

    CueNo stopping
  2. Take off

    Take off from one foot and kick the outside leg up and sideways.

    CueKick it high
  3. Hand

    Place your whole palm flat and lean into it as you pass.

    CueIt guides, not holds
  4. Land

    Land on the inside foot and stride straight out.

    CueRun on

  2. IfStopping before the take-off.
    ThenStart at a slow jog and keep the rhythm through.
  3. IfLanding on two feet and stopping.
    ThenLand on the inside foot and let the other one stride on.
  4. IfSteepled fingers on the top.
    ThenPut the whole palm down so it can take your weight.

Why it's Silver: Silver because both feet leave the ground at a run and only one hand touches. It needs the step vault's shape plus speed.
