Steps

edit
  • Approach the rail focusing on hand placement above all else.
  • Once your hands are secured in place, dip your right shoulder and begin the hop over the rail.
  • As your legs side vault to one side, your right hand should take all the weight while the left hand lets go of the bar to switch positions.
  • Once your hands are in position use both arms to support your weight while pivoting. Once done, you can spot where your feet will be placed.
  • Guiding your feet into position, get ready to bend the knees.
  • Bend the knees deeply to absorb the shock and prepare for the dismount.
