Rae Crowther Climb Sled with S2 Dual Arm Pad
“The sled” for the Mechanics of Hip Driven Power. Maximize your teaching of base blocks. A great sled for everyone but maybe the best tool for helping the undersized lineman. Get a maximum return on your sled practice time. The Climb sled was designed to allow offensive and defensive linemen a realistic game-like target to combat linemen who play “low and long”, leaving the little surface area to strike the opponent. The concept comes from longtime professional Coach Bill Callahan. With DLs offering little surface area to strike, the offensive lineman must learn the new “Climb” technique; by striking underneath the shoulder plate with an uppercut strike, while finding “handles” on the breastplate of the defender. The new S2 pad has built into the surface of the pad a breastplate with enough “give” to allow the offensive player to gain a “handle.” The new S2 pad also includes arms (stubby short arms) that mirror the difficulty of hand placement in a dynamic combative environment. The pad is then leveraged, or “Climbed” into a taller position while being driven. The angle of the S-Pad is adjustable, allowing the coach to create more angles or less. Pro/Collegiate and High School models are available. Metal parts are powder-coated black. Pad colors are black, red, royal, green. Warranty on metal is 5 years; warranty on padding is 2 years.
