The Pop-Up Kaboom Safety Tackler was designed around one goal: getting the head and the crown of the helmet out of contact. A strike plate is sewn across the front of the pad from shoulder tip to shoulder tip to mark exactly where players should make contact, and "Head Up" and "Chest Up" are stitched onto the pad as a constant visual reminder of proper form.

At just 70 lbs., it's noticeably lighter than a standard tackling sled, which takes some of the intimidation out of tackling reps for younger or less experienced players while keeping the focus on technique. After a player dips and rips through the pad to bring it down, it pops back upright on its own with no help needed, so it's ready for the next tackler right away.

Because it's light and easy to move, it also works well as a warm-up or pre-game sled, and beyond tackling it's useful for ball-security and stiff-arm work with running backs and receivers, as well as stance-to-fit-contact-drive-and-shed progressions for younger offensive and defensive linemen. It can also serve as a rehab tool for players working back into contact at a controlled pace.

  • Model: KPUT
  • Weight: 70 lbs.
  • Dimensions: 53 in. H x 69 in. L x 28 in. W
  • Pad color: black only

  • Sewn-on strike plate and "Head Up, Chest Up" cues reinforce safe contact
  • Self-uprights after every tackle with no assistance needed
  • Lighter than a standard tackling sled, ideal for JV and middle school players
  • Doubles as a warm-up, pre-game, or rehab tool

Also useful beyond tackling reps: works well for ball-security and stiff-arm drills with running backs and receivers, and for stance-to-fit-contact progressions with younger offensive and defensive linemen. The entire pad is removable for storage.

Why is this sled lighter than a standard tackling sled?
At 70 lbs. it's built to take some of the intimidation out of tackling reps for younger or less experienced players while keeping the focus on proper form.
Does it need to be manually reset after each tackle?
No, it pops back upright on its own after being taken to the ground, so it's ready for the next rep immediately.
