Foot placement

Whenever you land on the Precision Stick,

always aim for the ball of your foot. Never

land on your arches or heels.

When you are getting ready to use your APK

Precision Sticks for the rst time, check for the

following:

1. Space. Ensure there is at least a body-length of

space in all directions around each of your

Precision Sticks, in order to prevent injury and/or

damage to objects around you.

2. Grip. Some surfaces oer more traction on the

bottom of the Precision Sticks than others. Before

attempting any jumps, set the Precision Stick down

and test the traction by sliding it with your foot

across the surface. If it slips easily, try another

surface. If you’re having trouble nding a surface

that sticks well and doesn’t get marked, try APK’s

My Training Spot™ mat.

3. Surface marking. Precision Sticks are made to be

non marking, but it is always best to test your

surface rst. Test an inconspicuous area by sliding

the Precision Stick across the surface to check for

marking.

Precision jump technique

Once you’ve established consistency in your

landing positions, stand near your Precision

Stick and try a small jump onto it. Focus on

your foot placement, your posture in the

landing positions, and sticking the landing by

maintaining stillness for 3 seconds. Land in

the Top Position and use the Middle Position

and Bottom Position if you start to lose your

balance. Move on once you can stick at least

6 out of 10 jumps.

Challenges

“Back-O”. Start close to your Presicion Stick and do a precision jump. If

you stick the landing, jump from slightly farther away next time. If you

don’t stick it, try one more time from that distance, and if you don’t stick

that one, move one increment closer to the Presicion Stick See how far

you can get, but remember that the primary goal is perfectly balanced

landings consistently. Scan the QR code on the back for more

challenges.
