Simple Physics • F=ma • The Greater the Angle - The Greater the Force • 45 Degree Down Block 1.5x - 2x Force Advantage • 30 Degree Down Block 2x - 2.5x Force Advantage • Kick Out Block 2.5x - 3x Force Advantage
Simple Physics • 2 - 12 Year Old Players @ 135 Lbs. • Drive Block • Player 1 135 x 2 = 270 Force • Player 2 135 x 2 = 270 Force • 270 - 270= 0 Stalemate X O
Simple Physics • 2 - 12 Year Old Players @ 135 Lbs. • 30 Degree Angle Block • Player 1 135 x 2 = 270 Force • Player 2 135 x 2 x 2.5 = 675 Force • 675 - 270= 405 Force Advantage X O
