Drill
Two-Contact Pair with a Planned Endpoint
HOW TO DO IT
Two-Contact Pair with a Planned Endpoint
Link individually mastered laid tasks while protecting final recovery.
Preparation and setting
Both individual contact turns and both ED15 bridge orders functional; appropriate full corridor, current clearance and direct observation.
Exercise sequence
- Ride a standing pair on the selected line to verify corridor and ordinary fallback.
- Make the first demonstrated contact arc, recover with reserve and select the opposite edge.
- Establish the next working response before growing its lowering and contact.
- Recover from the second arc and stop at the planned endpoint; do not keep adding turns automatically.
- Repeat from the other starting edge. Add a third arc only if the final recovery remains as deliberate as the first.
Transfer
Use ECRC-18 to log first failed phase and choose the next component. Longer runs and changed terrain require separate reassessment.
Errors addressed
Thrown second laydown; Pair stalls from excessive drag; Accumulating fatigue/timing error.
Observable success
Both orders retain support, optional contact, functional transitions and a deliberate final exit.
Regression
Return to ED15 bridges and shorten contact duration. Reduced linking demand is preferable to an unplanned faster entry.
