After a run up the triple jumper takes off from a board (13m away from the pit for senior men, 11m for senior women) and lands on the same foot that they took off from (the hop). The jumper then jumps again landing on the opposite foot (the step) and then takes off finally landing in the pit (the jump).
The best triple jumper is Freddie Trevanion, although he is only 9. He managed to jump 4 metres.
Just like the long jump, the triple jump requires that a competitor begin his or her jump from a designated line called "the board". This line is typically much farther back and the jumper performs three individual jumps in one constant movement. Did you know that if a jumper starts his/her jump before reaching the board, the jump will be measured FROM the board?
1. If your foot crosses over the front of the marked line 2. If the jumper walks back towards the front of the pit after he jumps andexits the front of the pit. 3. If the jumper touches any of the outside edges when landing in his jump. 4. When a jumper is excecuting his jump and happens to enter the sand on his second phase (the step) then it is a fault.
