Preparation:
The Marine will start in the standing position with feet hip width apart.
Execution:
The Marine will jump out as far as they can, keeping their feet hip width apart. They will land breaking at the hips and knees to absorb the force of the landing. Once the Marine lands they will continue to jump out as far as they can keeping their feet hip width apart, spending as little time on the ground as possible.
Common Mistakes: - Landing on a locked out knee
- Not absorbing the force of the landing
- Not extending the hips during the jump
- Staying on the toes
