The young NeW Zealand thrower (15 1/2 years) not only surprised everybody by winning the last World junior champs in Moncton , but with a 88kg body weight and 1,87m tall , he was not only the youngest but also the "smallest" competitor. In these conditions , throwing 20,76m with 6kg and 22,60m with 5kg is a unique achievement which can be better understood when one watches his technique essentially based on fluidity of motion and maximal use of the legs explosivity. Some aspects of this technique are indeed very similar to what Brian OLDFIELD was doing some years ago.

  • Thank you for the info . How do you calculate this horsepower ? Hopefully Jacko will be able to throw 19m with a 7kg in a short future with less than 150kg bench press and less than 200kg squat.

  • Jack has just thrown 20m with the 7.26kg put at 16 years of age only weighing 95kg. Big future ahead of him.

  • What is Jackos Standing throw with 5kg, 6kg?

  • you dont wanna keep ur eye on the implement..wrong word usage

  • Interesting comparison with Oldfield

  • @safty30 It´s not 7,29! It´s 7,26

  • has he ever thrown the 7.29? and if so what kind of distances does he put out?

  • What kind of numbers is he putting up at present on the Squat? Bench press? Overhead Squat?

  • Nice job! All that confirm what Edward sarul said about power that you should not focus on big pure strength but on speed and you are speed i wonder what is your 40

    Do you know that throwers up to 20m developp 9 horsepower?
