CrossFit Kids - Skill Day

CrossFit Kids - King of Prussia

Today, play on the bars. Practice pull overs, roll overs and kips.

Skill Day Brain Teaser:
A man is wearing black. Black shoes, socks, trousers, jumper, gloves, and balaclava. He is walking down a black street with all the street lamps off. A black car is coming toward him with its lights off too, but somehow manages to stop in time. How did the driver see the man?

Skill Day Puzzle:

At first glance this structure seems impossible to build. After all it would collapse before many of the bricks (or in this case, dominoes) were laid. But the bridge is actually easy to construct if you approach it with the right frame of mind.
(From The Big Book of Brain Games)
