I'm gonna be a junior next year, and I just started triple jump this year...my school doesn't teach you how to do it, though..my personal record this year was 40'11 which is ok (it will get me into states)...and this teacher sucks, by the way

[wyzz7]

This video isn't for people who already know how to triple jump...this is for people who have no idea what triple jump even is. It's basic as basic can get - hence "101." So, take it easy.

'm not bashing the video at all. I saw it for what it was, a possible assignment for a class. As you say, this video is only good for a beginner, but to post it as something that will get someone over 40 feet is just asking for rough comments. Just say what it is from the get go and no one will dog you on it. There is supposed to be truth in advertising.

[wyzz7]

point taken

[omen110]

why is anyone even looking at this video as a tool to jump well over 40 feet. Just youtube triple jump to look at Olympians or NCAA champions to get the real deal. Obviously, Sarah is a multi-event person and the girl that is with her is not a true track athlete.

Let it go...or better yet, let's all create our own videos and post them!

[wyzz7]

Sheesh...you guys are awful tough on my video. This was made as a class assignment. The assignment was to teach a beginner something related to athletics or motor movements. Sarah IS a multi-event person and the girl with her has NEVER done track. And the reason her arms look "wrong" is because she had shoulder surgery and only took her arm out of the sling to do the video...jackass.

wud u guys stop tryin to brag about how far you can jump, no offense but rly no one cares

[skdeutsch]

also, i jump about 38'...and dont blame wyzz for his cunning sense of humor... also, i think i am retired from making instructional videos...im too camera shy.

[mrfr87]

lol, i don't think i will try your method of finding which foot is the dominent with young child or old people. Just in case they end up face planting the floor.

[Puz123CP]

Hey cool video nice and clear instructions

[Jay8941]

She's ok, but u can tell she herself is a begginer by her 2nd phase

[datchickMONE]
