I've flipped one of these at 165lbs. So, blaming her weight probably isn't the most kind observation

Wasn't trying to blame her weight.. but it certainly didn't help.

She also landed at the edge of the box with most of her body weight in front of her toes, I was more blaming it on trying to do the 30inch jump...

Especially considering that I've now noticed she's doing it from plates.

If she had put the box on its side and did 24inch jumps from the floor, the height differential would have been almost the same and the box would have been harder to flip.

I'd blame coaching more than her weight.

Observations don't have to be kind
