How does a Double Vinyl Kicking Target work?
The target consists of two vinyl-covered padded surfaces joined in a clamshell configuration. An internal plastic clapper sits between the two surfaces. When a student kicks or strikes the target, the impact compresses the two sides together, causing the clapper to produce a loud snapping sound.
The holder grips the target using an attached heavy-duty elastic wrist lanyard, which secures the target to the hand and allows for stable positioning during training. The audible feedback helps practitioners gauge the accuracy and power of their strikes.
