One Leg Board Jump

Expert Advice

Focus on a soft landing to absorb impact through your muscles rather than your joints. Use your arms to generate momentum and maintain balance.

  2. Bend your knee slightly and swing your arms to prepare for the jump.
  3. Explosively jump onto the board, landing softly on the same foot.
  4. Maintain balance upon landing, then step down and reset.
  5. Perform the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other leg.
