[20BmC10Studios]

@HUGOVANTA u high jumpers r good at jumping trying 2 get up lik that it must take alot of leg workouts

[HUGOVANTA]

@20BmC10Studios yeah man, lots of plyo's and explosive resistance training. i use to do triple jump as well, but my shins couldn't take it after a few years so, total respect to them all :)

[20BmC10Studios]

@HUGOVANTA yea thats why we ice every day

[HUGOVANTA]

[TheJetrick03]

good..

[haltrman93]

The music just ruined the video.

This being the first time I've actually seen the triple jump performed, I just don't understand it. Long jump I get and it's fun to do, but this just seems... odd... (and it looks fucking killer on the knee joints).

[ROTTiiSHA]

@haltrman93 It is, but it's a heck of a lot of fun

[03Ranger4x2]

Three words. I love Idowu.

[sashmuscle]

@Dayoakins wow bro, way to toot ur own horn on youtube

cool story bro, want a cookie?

[Oskarhkk]

Edwards is the only and best white jumper!

[ninjaloki1]

how far are they jumping

[SneakyMcrawlzor]

this is terrible

[cdt6543]

@Dayoakins while those are impressive for the age group, those are only out of the kids who actually compete in those jr olympics, but you have to remember how many kids didnt compete

[AN1MAL1ST1C]

@cdt6543 ya i agree. most people don't realize their abilities in track and field until high school or later. that was the case for me. another great example of this is donald thomas of the bahamas. he didn't compete until college years and he's one of the best in the world now in the high jump.

[showtime2k4]

wat song is that?

[CerebralPrince10]

It's actually hurting me watching Lister. His second phase looks like he breaks his leg and rejuvinates it before he lands.

[trampolinist2]

song? please

[JuliaGiselle]

MOrgen sind Bundesjugendspiele und meine Knöchel tun EXTREEM weh nach sportunterricht heute :/

What should I do ? :S

[masterchief4lifeftw]

I have shin splints it hurts.. but my longest jump is 38 ft and im in 8th grade its not to bad ig

[THExGOOGLERx]

when it said the one the only Jonathan Edwards i thought it was gonna say the one the only white guy

[dricker16]

edwards is a BEASTTT

[poppunkemoscreamo]

thanks for making this. i m just starting triple jump. and i realy needed to see verything in slow motion to see how there feet went.

[hilow0090]

what song is this?

[Jerudadamaja1]

man my best is 37 9 and i thought that was far lol

[Honore2010]

Man Edwards came and took that. The best i've seen so far

[fatman2120]

I Know Idowu will break that 18m mark.

[ltsJustAndy]

this looks painful

[16omg16]

its really not

[Paco801]

If done incorrectly it is extremely painful.

[ltsJustAndy]

i see. it just looks like it puts a lot of stress on their knees

[jive87]

it does

[Triplejump96]

Why they dont show edwards best jump?

[BigReillyDardy94]

edwards is a fucking legend!!

[lukesullivan2525]

i am 14 and i can jump 12m

[connorlav]

What leg strength execises would improve a triple jumpers leg strength?

[CPAR15]

Hang cleans.... And squat step ups

[grumm70]

a white guy hahahaha pop ya bubble

[trackandfieldkid]

who has the current WR in triple?

[K3vTi]

jonathan edwards

[josshinator]

Johnathan Edwards: 18.29m and 18.43m wind assited. no one has jumped over 18 meters since 1995 :)

[Triplejmpr]

What about Kenny Harrison 18.09 at the 1996 Games in Atlanta into a headwind measured at 0.4 meters per second???

[ErwinJumps]

Kenny Harrison jumped 18.09m in 1996 and Edwards himself jumped 18.01m in 1998 at the first Golden League meeting.

[cdt6543]

@josshinator kenny harrison

[iKingTank]

well im 16 and i can jump 41ft 9 in so i think that i need to work on it a little bit

[Kuni94]

am 15 and ia can 12.60 :P but i wanna jump 13m

[Coreyinengland]

im 12 nd ma record is nearly 10 m

i'm actually 16 and as unhealthy as caaaaandy floss see how easy it is to lie? But just proving a point, so shhhh peopleeee just enjoy the video!! :)

[Resatka]

I thought this video was very good but they need to change the music to it. cause are track athletes very health. so why would a song about drugs be good for this video?

[Rarukar]

Who cares? honestly.

[PowerSprinter]

@Resatka naw man. You gotta get pumped with some rap music. its all about the intensity

[wesisagisback]

@Resatka I like the song. I'm in my freshmen year of college and used to watch this all the time. Kids who do what they hear in music are retarded and lost already, its not the music it their weak frame of mind.

[MrDeltaMaster]

@Resatka you sound sooo dumb it just depends on your taste of music i honestly never listened to the song because im actually studying the video, the people who study the video instead of watch it like a movie will get more out of it

[ROTTiiSHA]

@Resatka Pump up song. I don't know too many artists that sing/ rap about running and jumping.

[TheDancingRebel]

@Resatka and the song sucks cock anyway

[nitrasbeks]

@Resatka stfu...

[LeeBoy480]

[TripleRoss]

Yea i just love how everyone assumes that we really care what they jump...I mean unless you live in my state and I have to compete against you I don't care.

and ps- You don't have to lie to be cool..

[latroy528]

[tejanossoccer]

[iFilmX]

MMmmkay :D

[csbg91493]

it doesn't suck. i mean if we are talking just by high school track standards it's respectable. not like it will qualify for a nationals meet but it's still a solid jump for a freshman

[matthew5rocks]

ya man! thats really good for 15 keep workin

[K3vTi]

In Toronto, a 12.6 metre jump is a senior jump , for a junior that'll take you straight into OFSAA

[SkateDontDie]

[triplestep1829]

why do kids on youtube always ask peoples opinion how if their jumping well? unless your jumping over 50 feet noones wants to know you anyway.

[TrackXC1993]

[TrackXC1993]

2:27 jump of melvin lister seemed reallly sloppy. He looked like he was about to fall going into his last phase

[vc96]

[triplestep1829]

and gregorio. theres some interesting techniques going around

[connorlav]

[12maggio]

is a very nice video !!!!!

[laneseals1]

I'm about a 46' jumper. The kid that beat me at state went 48'9".

[Xerxeoo]

hey smarter, what do you think about a 45'8" regional championship jump and a 44'10" 6th place state jump (coaches fault on killing my legs 2 days before i jumped), i was coming on breaking my right ankle 4 times in 2 years and hadnt worked out for 8 months before i did it, how far do you think i can get?

[matchstikman87]

I 13 and jumped 11.05 m Is that good ? 37 feet i think

[ruainsaneskter]

im 11 its my first time triple jumpin and i got 27'8" is that good just wonderin

[ruainsaneskter]

sorry i meant 29'8" i just reread my first post

[trajkovski1993]

chek my long jump videos, please comment :D

[b3np0rt3r]

Im 15 and i can jump 11.98

[Veloxraptor]

thats decent for 15 you might get a good pace in the smaller comps but anything higher such as provincials/state you wont even get top 15 and wont qualify for nationals which is 12.50

[MyTubeNotYoursxXx]

Hey. I'm a 15-year old girl and I jump 10.55m. I am county champion, and ranked 32nd best in the UK for u17s. I am 15cm off national qualifying. Any tips on how ton get those last 15cm guys?

thanks alot x

[smarterchild1512]

Hard to say without seeing some of your jumps. If you don't do any lower body lifting, you should (squats, cleans, jerks)

[sawyerman0118]

Just going to upload a video, reckon you'd be able to aid me on a fairly recent one where I just lost my balance!

[tremayne623]

@MyTubeNotYoursxXx thats cool my best jump is11.05 im 3rd in the region

[sawyerman0118]

Just a cry for help!

Ok, need tips on how to master my step phase, any tips on getting a bit more of a kinda leg extension on the step?

[hfhghdf]

niggers need to die

[BassBreakersDough]

Im 14 and I jumped 11.41metres at the track meet On June 4th.

I use my weak leg (left) for the first two phases then I use my dominant leg.

I find it easier because Im using my dominant

leg to drive up my weight and jump farther.

[DrCheetham]

those are okay im 15 and i can jump 11 70 but ma mate hus 16 got 15 30 or somethin stupid so he's probs gna get a gb kit this summer

sikk vid tho

[WoodsBalla7]

i'm 14 and Today at a track meet i jumped a 10.21m (34.5 feet) but at our schools pits i jump a 7... now is it the track shoes? and from your guys opinions for a 14 y/o is that anygood?

[mayarmeemzz]

Im a girl and im 15. I can jump 10.11

what do you think?

[mayarmeemzz]

Im a girl and im 15, i can jump 10.11

what do you think?

[athlete1010]

Do you start your triple jump with the foot you long jump off of like if you long of your right do you go (right, right left)?

[smarterchild1512]

yea, use your strong leg for 2 phases and weak leg for 1 phase. Some would disagree tho.

[Vafin3st]

my strong leg is right and i go off left left right....my longest jump ever is 38' 11

my best long jump is 18' 11 im 16 this was my first year of track....im 16th in the state

[athlete1010]

I am I sophomore in high school and currently jumping about 39 feet. As a freshman my best was 35. I have not done much physical training such as weight lifting and am going to begin doing so this summer. I know this is hard to guess but what do you think I could get up to senior year. I have two of my jumps posted if anyone wants to give me advice. Also what is the standard for a decent division II scholarship for triple. I have heard you need around 44+ but I'm not sure.

[cmax7N7]

awesome this always inspires me

[fifou230695]

a very good vidéo

[nixon132]

I'm 14. It's Pretty good.

[kjell123456]

yeah man me too, how far can you triple jump?

[nixon132]

I jumped 8.21 m at our junior high track meet and i'm a girl. The record is 9 something m

[Babaloo854]

im sorry...but thats not very good. what state are you in?

[Fokkywokky]

so you jumped the world record in the long jump for females? yoiu must be famous

[icecreamsundae999]

o ya i am 10 years old and i jumped 25.8 on the triple jump

[hellomotto2798]

for the person that said my friend jumped 15 feet in the 5th grade, one of my friends jumped 7 meters in the 4th grade.. thats about 21 feet

[solovelle]

Do you mean they triple jumped 21 feet? Because a 9 year old didn't long jump 21 feet.

[cane665]

2:24 was lame sorry it just was

[Marth09]

My favorite event is HJ, but TJ is awesome, too :D

[SmoothCriminalRaunaq]

2 yrs old?

[ReSpekt9845]

oh ya i'm sure that a two year old has a youtube account and can spell and has even heard of triple jump

[CheckersB]

azafatas7 is obviously fucking joking. He's slaggin off all the tossers who ARE posting their jumps. Don't take it so seriously

[MeantToRun1041]

Jonathan Edwards is the king of triple jump.

[singhgangsters]

my friend jumped 15 ft in 5 th grade

[ELITExBOYZx]

I think triple is the best event my first year in track 9th grade and im just pushing 40ft and it just feels good when you do it, better then any other event. killer on the legs tho.

[BDawk11793]

2:34 terrible form compared to the other guys

[ruskaya94]
