Simply getting to know that a kong is a dive rather than a jump helps allready a ton. Yet this tutorial is insanely well made! Thank you guys for your efforts
I love your tutorials. I have trouble teaching gather steps, and the armswing for kongs, and teaching it as a split foot plyo makes so much sense! Though some people struggle with coordinating all the limbs on that, even.
Glad you liked it! It’s true; coordination can be really poor when learning this type of jump set up. We often give more specific cues, when being general is more helpful for beginners. For example: I notice someone isn’t setting their arms right, so I tell them simply where to put their arms. The problem is that they weren’t thinking about their arms and now they are going to move slower and more robotic in order to appease the arm cue I just told them. The same person may have more success If I have them think about performing a more visually familiar movement like running up to a net to jump and block a volleyball or dunk a basketball. It’s all about giving them context for something they already have a grounded visual of.
I actually teach people to jump of two legs together rather than of a split-step. Split-step makes it a lot more confusing for beginners- they begin jumping of 1 foot instead of 2. With enough experience jumping of 2 feet together split-step comes naturally
Great Tutorial! I had never tried the Kong because I was always sure I would faceplant and bust my teeth out. But I had never heard of, nor seen the Ground Kong progression either. I am going to start working on this now.
Hey my man. How’s your recovery going after the microfracture surgery? I started following you after I had the same injury. However, I had to get two more (MACI procedure) because the microfracture was a complete failure…
There’s a kong pre I want to do from a rail to a piece of elevated concrete, both things are very short, about pelvis height, any tips on specifically kong pre-ing shorter obstacles?
When konging lower structures it helps to set up your take off further away. This ensures a more horizontal trajectory and allows you to use your arms more after your dive.

You are an excellent teacher. This is what my teacher did too and it makes way more sense
Some people will not change to one foot.

Think of a short obstacle kong as a dive roll in disguise where instead of rolling you use your arms to pivot your body back upright
