These Ankle Straps can be added to your Stunt Double kit to allow each athlete to have their own pair. This allows you to move the Stunt Double between athletes quicker with an easy snap system on the Ankle Straps.
Yes! The Stunt Double is appropriate for any level athlete. Be sure beginner athletes are prepared, before using the Stunt Double, with progressions that teach the proper body alignment and fundamental arm strength. When practicing new or advanced stunt skills with the Stunt Double, consider having a spotter hold the crossbar while the athlete works through the hand sequences.
There are many features built into the construction of the Stunt Double that make the product efficient as well as safe and sturdy. Each resistance band is covered with scrunched nylon cloth and have rubber-coated ends to cover the place of attachment to the carabiner. The ends of the crossbar are made of a thick welded steel eye bolt.
Each of the three coloured bands included with the Stunt Double are varying lengths. Choose a band that the athlete can easily stretch overhead with moderate resistance. At the easier tension, the athlete can focus on the correct shapes and form in the technique. The athlete should be able to do 10-15 reps of a movement at any given tension. As the athlete progresses with good shapes consistently, increase the resistance with either a shorter band or double bands.
The crossbar and swivel foot are made of sturdy steel and can be used alone, without the resistance bands as a weighted progression.
