Tackle Breaker Sled

THE TACKLE-BREAKER SLED:
The Tackle-Breaker is unique and unlike any other running tunnel. Break through the arms of the Tackle-Breaker and gain extra yardage! By generating enough force to break open the arms of the Tackle-Breaker, your players gain hundreds of first down generating repetitions. Each Power-Arm simulates not just stripping the ball but making a tackle.

Bobby Carroll
Head Football Coach
South Pointe High School
"We use the Tackle Breaker Sled with the S-Pads, Hit-tech, and the Swinging Dummy. I call it the "Monster Works." It's a heck of a piece of equipment. We drill our backs and DLs on the sled. We do a variety of drills, from pass rush and tackling with our DLs, to ball security, inside & outside runs, evasive open-field moves, and short yardage runs with our RBs. The swinging bag allows for a wide variety of drills. I really like how the pads are set low and that they are removable for storage when the season is over. The sled helps our backs with their technique and ball security, but it also makes them tougher.

FULL SPEED DRILLS:
The Tackle-Breaker reduces the risk of injuring a live tackler. It trains players to lower their shoulders and maintain leg drive. It enhances toughness to take on tacklers physically larger. The more repetitions a player gets with the Tackle-Breaker in practice, the more tackles he can break during the game.

6 POWER-ARMS:
Each Power-Arm imitates a hand and forearm. They simulate defenders trying to wrap up the ball carrier. Only the Tackle-Breaker simulates the arms of six actual tacklers. The player must generate approximately 200 lbs. of force to break the arms open and escape. Your players will have to be explosive into the arms, break them open, and maintain body lean.

S-Advantage Sled for Defensive Backs

S-PAD IMITATES A LIVE BALL CARRIER:
The S-Pad has a head, torso, waist and knees. It represents the look of a ball carrier in motion, not standing still.
Thus, the pad promotes the proper hitting position and takedown technique. It provides realistic angles for defenders to attack.

KNEE BEND:
The S-Pad promotes knee bend. Approaching players must bend their knees and strike the pad from low to high.
It trains tacklers to square their hips through contact, shoot their arms, wrap up, and drive their feet.

BETTER TACKLING:
We believe the S-Advantage Tackler will make your players better tacklers. And, as you know, better tackling translates to harder hits and more forced turnovers. Increased turnovers mean increased wins.

"The fundamentals of tackling are easily taught using the S-Tackler. This is a must purchase for your team's practice equipment!"

Chris Norman
Head Coach
Shelby High School
(State Champs '86, '87, '98, '05, '06)
"The pad is in the contact position, the S shape. It's the best darn thing I've seen in countless years. Honestly, it's a heck of an advancement. We love it."

S-Advantage Sled Blocking Drills

Movie:


The S-Pad is designed in the shape of an actual player, a player in the contact position, moving, not static, not upright. It provides a realistic target: head, torso, shoulders, waist, and knees. Angled like an actual charging player. The S-Pads make plain sense. Call Rae Crowther 1-800-841-5050

Monster Rope Drills

THE MONSTER RUNNING ROPE is a height-adjustable running rope. It is 6' wide (most ropes are 4') and thus places the metal farther away from contact with any players. A flat bar connects the two chassis.



Players can work quick starts, high knee lifts, or various other drills. Watch these drills on DVD! Easily adjust the rope from 7" to 17" for specific position drills. The rope is made of high visibility yellow heavy duty nylon webbing.
