"We're now going to set the last element of our gymnastic line. This is going to be a one stride and it's also going to be an axer jump. So, we're going to watch seven big steps, 21 feet, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, draw a line and we'll place a pole. It's important when setting an axer that the place that you mark is the front of the axer. We'll set another set of standards behind our first set and we'll place our pole. We'll place our ground line flower box underneath our first pole. We're ready to jump."
