Best thing to do is call around to local high schools and see if they have any old ones they aren't using. In my area I found three schools that had replaced...

I personally like to use the scissors jump as a warmup (scissors, 3-step, 5-step, then full), but more importantly it's a good drill to get the jumpers...
I often use the scissors with young jumpers as a progressive skill block in trying to emphasis the upward drive ion the actual jump.I find it as an effective...
