English

Subject field(s)
  • Track and Field
CONT

No matter which technique is used during the jump phase, it is important that a "distance-gaining" landing is well prepared for. Shortly before landing, the arms are swung far backwards so that the feet can be simultaneously lifted higher. At the moment of breaking the sand, both arms are swung powerfully forward to counter the tendency to fall backwards.

Vous fléchissez les genoux et amenez les bras vers l'arrière. Vous exercez une poussée simultanée des deux pieds et sautez vers l'avant, le plus loin possible, à l'aide d’un fort balancement des bras; vous atterrissez sur les deux pieds, l'un contre l'autre, sans tomber en arrière. La mesure du saut est prise à partir du talon le plus proche de la ligne d’appui. Si vous tombez en arrière ou déposez n’ importe quel segment de votre corps au sol, l'exercice est considéré comme non valide.
