Wall Mounted VJ Testing

The original and most simple method for measuring vertical jump height is against a wall. Although you can use just any wall and a piece of chalk in the hand, there are also other wall mounted grid options. See a procedure for using the wall method. Below are some examples of wall mounted grids for the measurement of vertical jump, all using magnetic discs for marking the height. See the discussion and list of other measurement methods.
