Foxtell Elastic Crossbar for High Jump & Pole Vault — 13 ft Foldable Training Bands, 2-Pack

Foxtell 2Pack Elastic Krossband is a pair of 13 ft foldable elastic crossbars designed to recreate a soft, visible bar for high jump and pole vault practice without the risk of a rigid pole.

Coaches and athletes who want a portable, forgiving alternative to traditional fiberglass or aluminum crossbars will find these elastic bands useful for repeated practice sessions. Each set assembles into two lightweight crossbars using stretch latex tubing and hollow foam sleeves. The kit is built for easy transport, quick setup, and adjustable length so jumpers at different levels can simulate clearance techniques with reduced worry about equipment impact.

How is this crossbar kit assembled and adjusted?

Assembly requires sliding the hollow pearl foam tubes onto the elastic latex tubing and securing ends to create a continuous, visible crossbar. The bands can be trimmed to length and re-sleeved to match different standards or portable uprights. No special tools are required beyond simple cutting for length adjustments.

• Includes two 13 ft latex tubes and 28 foam sleeves (14 black, 14 white).
• Sleeves slip over tubing for visibility and minor cushioning.
• Cable can be cut and rejoined to fit uprights or practice rigs.

What materials are used and how durable are they?

The core is 1 mm high-elastic latex tubing that stretches and recovers, while the sleeves are hollow pearl foam offering lightweight protection and visual contrast. Together they resist repeated bending and outdoor sessions, though fatigue will depend on frequency of use and exposure to sunlight or extreme temperatures.

• 1 mm elastic latex for flexible, resilient performance.
• 3 cm outer-diameter hollow pearl foam sleeves for light cushioning.
• Black-and-white sleeve mix for visibility and quick alignment checks.

Can beginners and coaches rely on this for safe practice?

Because the crossbar is flexible and covered in soft foam, it reduces hard impacts compared with rigid bars, so athletes can practice technique with less concern about bar-related collisions. It’s especially useful for drill repetition, approach timing, and visualizing clearance without replacing competition-grade equipment.

• Soft, non-rigid profile lowers risk of hard strikes.
• Ideal for drill repetitions and confidence-building sessions.
• Not a certified competition crossbar—intended for training use.

How portable and versatile is the Foxtell crossbar for different sports?

The set is lightweight, foldable, and fits easily into a gym bag, which makes it suitable for indoor practice, outdoor fields, or gymnasiums. Beyond high jump and pole vault, it adapts to gymnastics, acrobatics, long jump training, and dance drills where a temporary horizontal marker helps athletes practice clearance or alignment.

• Folds compactly for transport and storage in small spaces.
• Suitable for multiple sports and drill types.
• Quick to assemble and reconfigure between sessions.

Who is this for? The Foxtell Elastic Krossband set is designed for coaches, school teams, club athletes, and solo practitioners who need a safe, low-cost training tool to simulate a crossbar. It works well for beginners learning clearance mechanics, intermediate athletes refining technique with high repetition, and programs that value portability and easy setup. Keep in mind it is a training aid, not an official competition crossbar; treat it as a practice device to improve spatial awareness, timing, and confidence during jump drills.
