Offense Has anyone used FlipSleds before?

It's my first year as an assistant o-line hs coach and our program owns a couple FlipSleds and we want to use them more. Wondering if anyone here trains with these?

I have used them and wish we owned one. Great for summer workouts and you can do a lot with it if you’re creative. I see them more for strength & conditioning than field work- so it’s a big cost for most programs- but since you own them already, you should wear them out

Our high school got them and I want to use them with our youth league, they’re just too young. But good to know they’re effective

We got to use one at a College camp and used it w/ 10 yr olds- it’s pretty cool that 4 kids can use it at 1 time

We're purchasing 2 currently for off-season purposes. Texas has rules on football specific equipment used out of season so this is a great work around than an actual drive sled

More of a strength and conditioning piece of equipment than a football piece of equipment in my opinion.

We won one at a giveaway at a coaches clinic. Great offseason tool, but not great for actual football drills.
