R80 Rugby Lifting Blocks
The R80 Rugby Lifting Block is the original patented lineout lifting aid, consisting of heavy-duty neoprene housing a rubber lifting block worn on the shorts of the lineout jumper. R80 lifting blocks provide a safe, secure, and legal grip point for lifters during lineout jumps, protecting both the jumper and the lifters and allowing lifters to generate maximum height and hold the jumper at the top of the lineout for longer.
Why Use Lineout Lifting Blocks?
- Safety — lifting blocks provide a defined, secure grip point for lifters, significantly reducing the risk of slipping or losing control of the jumper during the lineout
- Legal compliance — World Rugby laws require that lifters grip the jumper at the shorts or thighs — R80 lifting blocks worn on the shorts provide a safe and legal grip point that meets World Rugby requirements at all levels of the game
- Performance — a secure, consistent grip allows lifters to generate maximum height and hold the jumper at the top of the lineout for longer, improving the quality and consistency of ball won
Who Needs Lineout Lifting Blocks?
Any rugby club or school competing in lineouts at U14 level and above will benefit from a set of R80 lifting blocks. They are used at all levels from underage club rugby in Munster to provincial and international teams, and are the standard lineout lifting aid in Irish club rugby.
