good morning

some very good jumping....

maybe it's just me "hoping" but his run looked as good (nice frequency over the last six)and as consistent as i have seen it....

and note the three orange cones at the six step "MID".... a foot apart.. he hits the third consistently... maybe 10cm off occasionally..

looks like he is in better control than ever..

that means bigger jumps to come...

PS.. if you "charted" a 5.90m jump it would look like this... grip 5.09/TO-4.37m/"MID"-17.16m/speed 9.5MPS

Lavillenie has had a great year, clearly the favorite coming into the Olympics.
