Abstract
The invention comprises a plurality of indicator members rotatably coupled to an inner slide assembly, the inner slide assembly coupled to an inner channel member, the inner channel member further coupled to an outer channel member. In this configuration, system is mounted to a mounting surface through the outer channel member, the inner channel member is configured in a first state to freely traverse along a vertical axis of the outer channel member and in configured in a second state fixed at a single point on the vertical axis, and inner slide assembly is configured in a first state to freely traverse along a vertical axis of the inner channel member and in a second state fixed at a single point on the vertical axis.

A vertical jump measuring system comprising:
- an inner slide assembly including an inner slide member, an indicator rod, and a plurality of indicator members, wherein the indicator rod is coupled to the inner slide member and the plurality of indicator members are rotatably coupled to the indicator rod;
- the inner slide assembly coupled to a first inner channel member, the inner slide assembly, in a first state, fixed in an inner slide assembly retracted position along a first inner channel member vertical axis and in a second state freely traverses down the first inner channel member vertical axis until the inner slide assembly is fixed in an inner slide assembly extended position;
- and
- the first inner channel member coupled to an outer channel member, the first inner channel member, in a first state, fixed in a first inner channel member retracted fixed position along an outer channel member vertical axis and in a second state freely traverses down the outer channel member vertical axis until the first inner channel member is fixed in a first inner channel member extended position.
A vertical jump measuring system comprising:
- an inner slide assembly including an inner slide member, an indicator rod, and a plurality of indicator members, wherein the indicator rod is coupled to the inner slide member and the plurality of indicator members are rotatably coupled to the indicator rod;
- the inner slide assembly partially nested within a first inner channel member, the inner slide assembly, in a first state, fixed using a detent mechanism coupled to the inner slide assembly and engaged with the inner channel member, in an inner slide assembly retracted position and in a second state the detent mechanism is disengaged from the inner channel member and the inner slide assembly freely traverses down the first inner channel member until the inner slide assembly is constrained by the inner channel member in an inner slide assembly extended position;
- and
- the first inner channel member nested within an outer channel member, the first inner channel member, in a first state, fixed using an inner channel detent mechanism coupled to the inner channel member and engaged with the inner channel member in a first inner channel member retracted fixed and in a second state the inner channel detent mechanism is disengaged from the outer channel member and the inner channel member freely traverses down the outer channel member until the first inner channel member is constrained by the outer channel in a first inner channel member extended position.
