Question

How can you hop a spiked fence?

Community Answer

It's not a good idea to hop over a spiked fence. You wouldn't have anywhere to rest your hands while you jumped. Instead, climb the fence or look for a gate.

Question

What if I'm short?

Community Answer

If you're worried that you're not tall enough to hop a fence, practice jumping straight upwards. This will help build muscles and let you jump higher.

Question

I can't do the speed vault because I can't get enough height and I end up tripping and falling. What can I do?

Community Answer

Try jumping smaller hurdles and work your way up to bigger hurdles. The more you practice, the more height you'll be able to get.

Question

What should I do if the back of my shirt gets caught in a spiked fence?

Community Answer

If you're jumping a spiked fence, tuck your shirt in first. Otherwise, if you get stuck, you'll have to wriggle your way out of your shirt and may hurt yourself in the process.

Question

How do I overcome my fear of doing the monkey vault?

Community Answer

Practice doing it at lower heights first. After a while you'll get comfortable doing it on higher and higher fences.
