Demonstration
Skate boards - this can either be done well with a ruler between the pupils or possibly even better, throwing a medicine ball between pupils. It is easiest to start with two pupils of the same mass, moving on to a massive and small pupil.

Equipment
2 x skate baords 1x 1m ruler 1x large medicine ball

Medicine balls can be used from 3rd form and above, although great care must be taken particularly when choosing the pupils; err on the side of caution, especially with weak of light pupils.
