Just another reason why Savage Race is better at customer loyalty than Spartan as a company.

So many kudos to savage race. Thank you for sharing. Love a company that takes care of it's customers.

Mind blown! Makes total sense with body mechanics.

Great tutorial! Looking forward to trying it out.

Tried them and love them. Thanks for the recommend.

Great instructional video. Thanks for the demo.

Psshht, Chrissi don't deserve your Halo top. Don't share. LOL

LOL, parking is an issue at every event, even when it really doesn't seem to be an issue for customers.

Love this video and the delightful chiming sound when someone rings the completion bell.

I know this is 6 years old, but... is there a way I can still win a race giveaway.

Why doesn't Spartan have a qualification to sign up for elite? That's interesting.

I like the idea of mandatory obstacle completion with the bands. But can see and understand the perspectives on the 30 and 15 count burpees. Great video. Excited to watch more.

Also, love the finger snap to change to race type. Thank you for the explanations on the different races. <3

What's your favorite flavor of halo top? LOL

Thank you for the tips and the links to your favorite items.

Love the intro video Derek <3

WTF? Wow! Thanks so much. I had no idea!!

Very helpful!

I wish I had watched this before yesterday. You're videos are very helpful and I'm looking forward to applying your tips to the next one.

I just got back from Spartan Sprint and you’re teaching was spot on. I nailed it on the first try! 😮

Good stuff! thanks for the advice. I do my race today in the Poconos. Arooo!

Did I see you at Frontline?!

This is a great approach! Never even clouded into the right and left side till he had showed it.

The whole time I'm watching you climb on the right of the screen, wondering why you're saying to take the left... then I finally realized, it's the left side of the rig on the right!

Thank you great video! I just did the San Diego Spartan last weekend and had not done this obstacle before and just used all upper body with legs hanging and that was rough… 😂. Your technique is flawless and will definitely help!

I'm left handed brah

TLDR;tips Make sure tip is straight if not make it straight Throw rope over fence Find balance point - try w each spear - put 1 hand with back from balance pt Keep wrist locked Think of it as a dart- throw straight

Thanks for this vid! I’m sold on these laces. Thanks for time of my life I got back from tying 🙏

Can’t focus on the video over the smacking. Terrible decision

I'm so confused...isn't he on the right?

I did it yesterday for first time

I've participated in many OCR sadly Savage Races have never come near my surrounding state, so my favorite would be the Spartan Race (between tough mudder and spartan race). I earned my Trifecta years ago, enjoy the spartan races because they have a more competitive vibe during the first runners. Course layouts are not always the best, and volunteering for spartan races is not as welcoming or organized as some other OCR usually are, but the races and enviorment is fun.

I tried making this for throwing practice, but somehow it always ends up in my fishing kayak

Will sand for me

Used this technique at Killington ‘23, worked like a charm! Thank you!

Oh dang, someone at greek peak, i was there in 2020. Last year they had the winter spartan there. Shame. I did really well that year at greek peak. And it was like 20 minutes from my house.

I did it on my knees on my first OCR. It gave me better traction but I wouldn’t do it without knee sleeves. My knees ended up getting skinned up and infected.

Have you done War X yet?

Thanks. My first race is in June.

I know this is a bit late, having been from years ago. I agree with steps 1, 2, 4, and 5. Step 3 (move your hand back) depends on your strength. If you put a lot of power into your throw like I do then that would throw you off. For those throwing in an arc, thats not a bad tip. Having taught this for the @hawaiispartanohana race team for a couple years, one of the biggest issues is something you addressed but I saw it on your throw. Not throwing the spear like every throwing thing we do in sports comes down to your follow through. The tip of the spear follows your hand after release, so thats why your spear (and believe me many, many others) turns to the left in the video instead of sticking straight in the target. Your throwing hand went to the left just like when you throw a baseball, football etc. If you want it to go straight you have to keep your follow through straight. There are three methods of doing this and they depend on the comfort and what works for the thrower. First is what i would tell my athletes was to give shaq a hi-five. The follow through on this is high, and usually used by those throwing with an arc. After release you keep your hand high and straight at the target like you were trying to get a tall person to give you a high five. The second method is the one I do for those who throw a straight spear and that is where your hand is pointed right at the target like you are offering it a handshake across a boardroom table. After release your arm stays straight and your hand points right at the target as if offering to shake its hand. The last is the pocket slap. This is for those who throw quickly in a snapping motion, like a baseball pitcher. To keep the tip straight at the target instead of bringing your arm across your body, you bring it straight down and slap what would be the front pocket if you were wearing jeans. Anyways I hope this helps because reading the comments I saw quite a few people having issues with the spear turning and this is the solution to it, just have to figure out if you are an arc thrower, straight thrower, or snap thrower, then use the method that corresponds. And if you are a snap thrower… give yourself enough room for the hand to come down so you don’t nt smash the metal barricade.

Dude … you’re wining. Run around them. It’s not that hard.

If you run elite, there should be nobody in front of you walking. You would’ve passed them in the first half mile to mile. This video doesn’t make sense. And cinnamon roll ice cream is nasty.

Thank you, had them for a year and never knew this 😀

did exactly what you showed........ no struggling, and finished clean! thanks!!!

Nice and smooth! I never thought about using either side of the anchor. Pretty sure I back hook lol

thank you for the video man going Nov 19th hopefully I wont miss. good luck to all others

You got to SCREAM while you throw it! Don't throw it like a dart, throw it like you're trying to kill the target! Every thing else he said is true though.

Just bout the speed cross 6 for my husband and there was even a lace up diagram WITHOUT this method. So yes, thank you!

Errr what happens during the race when multiple people are climbing and those crack closes when someone put their weight at the top. Seems like a way to loose a few finger tips 😂
