The fishing rod is the 'affectionate term' shall we say, of what is in fact a serious piece of training equipment, used by Stewart Russell at Spectrum Ice....the Pro-Motion hand held jump harness.

Stewart is a nationally recognized harness specialist, boasting best part of 10 years experience, assisting skaters of all ages, shapes and sizes (and of course their coaches!). The harness helps to attain the feeling of jumps, both on and off the ice, up to and including the triple lutz. This, in turn, boosts confidence, though being quick to stress that 'the harness is not a magic wand' and great care must be taken not to create a dependency. i.e. by using the harness for too long at any one time.

Should you require any information or assistance, please feel free to contact Stewart through our website.

In keeping with our aim to offer the very best in facilities and opportunities at Guildford Spectrum, to compliment 'the rod' an on ice fixed harness is to be installed. This will enable literally everybody wishing to experience the sensation of assisted jumping and hopefully, most importantly for some, achieve those sometimes elusive jumps in the quickest possible time.
