3x Team USA High Jumper Dontavious Hill explains the real reason jumpers snap on the bar and how to correct it for higher clearances.

You’ll learn:
- Why snapping starts on the ground, not in the air
- How lean and rotation keep your hips from dropping
- The approach adjustments that set you up for clean clearance

Great for high jumpers who lose height over the bar, hit it with their hips, or can’t keep their lower half up during clearance.
