Rae Crowther Motion Tackler V5 Benefit Statement
The Rae Crowther Motion Tackler V5 is a revolutionary tackling sled designed to simulate realistic game-like conditions, allowing players to practice tackling moving targets. With its patented S Pad (U.S. Patent # 6,988,965 B2 & Patent # 6,942,585 B1), the sled allows a coach to manually control its movements, pushing or angling the sled as the tackler approaches. This simulates ball carriers lowering or shrinking before contact, offering a more authentic training experience.
At the point of contact, coaches can either continue to provide resistance or let go, allowing the sled to be tackled to the ground. When a player engages and lifts the S Pad, the sled activates a simple brake mechanism, preventing it from rolling back and enabling the player to drive it to the ground. The sled is lightweight, making it easy to reset after each rep.
The S Pad is shaped like a real player, featuring a head, torso, waist, and knees to help players work on eliminating space, improving ear-to-ear contact, and perfecting their technique. Choose between the S1 or S2 pads, with the S2 offering additional arms and a chest plate for advanced drills. Available in various colors and powder-coated for durability.
