From the maker of Triple Jump and Long Jump 101, this is my best video so far I think. Winner did 24' and change, guys triple jumping at the end went 44' and the other guy went 46'. White kid used a three step approach tho so it was pretty sick (almost).

  • firstly the world record holder is white, its not about race. and secondly the last clip is not 3 step, if anything its at least 5 cuz thats how many you take in the clip, there could be more before that, but its not 3 step.

  • If you knew anything about track, you'd know that the world record holder is not white (Mike Powell). If you were referring to triple jump, you would be correct (Jonathan Edwards). Secondly, approachs are never measured as each individual step. They are counted as one leg step. So essentially your wrong because there were only three left steps used in the video.

  • Those were some pretty sloppy jumps in my opinion. I think only one person in the video looked like he had a clue as to how to execute a jump properly. Everyone else looked like they'd been jumping for about a week. Maybe its the camera angle or something.

  • Gotta be doin' something right to be competing at the national level

  • Probably just a buttload of natural talent. Because as technical jumpers, it was quite awful. I've known quite a few national level athletes that make you go "I just don't understand how you're doing this, you run like a baboon?". They just seem to have so much untapped potential when you see what they need to change.

  • I don't disagree with what your saying about technqiue, but aren't the best high school track athletes those with natural talent anyways?
