Rae Crowther Tackle-Breaker Sled with 6 Power Arms

Description

The Rae Crowther Tackle-Breaker Sled is the ultimate defensive reaction machine built to transform how your players practice ball security, pad level, and leg drive. Engineered with six high-resistance power arms made from dense foam, this sled simulates the physical demands of a real tackle - forcing ball carriers to fight through contact every rep. Each power arm requires 200 lbs. of force to open, making this sled genuinely challenging and effective at every distance. Unlike air-filled or plastic alternatives, the solid foam arms require zero maintenance and deliver consistent resistance session after session.

Designed for high school, college, and professional programs, the Tackle-Breaker Sled reduces injury risk by removing a live tackler from the drill while still developing the habits that matter most - ball protection, body lean, and relentless leg drive. It is one of the most versatile and demanding tools a football program can add to its practice facility.

Key Features

• 6 Power Arms: Simulates the arms of defenders grabbing and tackling the ball carrier during every rep.
• 200 lbs. of Force Per Arm: Each power arm requires 200 lbs. of force to open - this sled is genuinely difficult to run through.
• Adjustable Arm Height: Power arms adjust in height to accommodate players of different sizes and positions.
• Dense Foam Construction: Arms are made from dense foam - no plastic, no air bladders, no maintenance hassles.
• Reduces Injury Risk: Trains ball security and tackling technique without putting a live tackler in harm's way.
• Variable Difficulty: The distance the ball carrier starts from the sled determines how difficult the drill is - fully customizable intensity.
• Powder Coated Black Frame: Durable powder coat finish on the chassis for long-term weather and wear resistance.
• Multiple Add-On Options: Compatible with Power Bag (swinging dummy), S-pads, Wheel Kit, and chassis preassembly options.
• Weight: 550 lbs. (base) / 1,250 lbs. with all options: Substantial mass keeps the sled grounded during contact drills.
• Available Pad Colors: Black, Royal, Red, and Green to match your program's colors.

Options & Which to Choose

• Power Bag (Swinging Dummy, 75 lbs. with Metal Beam Support): Adds a swinging bag with multiple arms sewn in that grab at the ball and hit the runner. Ideal for stiff arm, forearm, collision, and evasion drills. A great addition for programs that want maximum contact simulation.
• S-Pads: Adds two S-pads to the front of the sled for additional resistance and contact surface. Best for programs focusing on pad-level and drive-through technique.
• Wheel Kit (2 wheels per kit): Makes moving the heavy sled across the field significantly easier. Recommended for any program that repositions the sled frequently during practice.
• Preassembly of Chassis (Highly Recommended): The sled arrives with the chassis pre-assembled, making setup much simpler. Strongly recommended for programs without dedicated equipment staff.
