Looks good. You're undergripped though. You're pulling a bit with the bottom hand and throwing your head back. Your grip may be a bit wide for that low handhold.

Its hard to give advice over the internet because everyone has different technical goals. But anyways i noticed you collapse big time on your penultament step and have a long low takeoff stride. you want a rising COG coming into the takeoff and you want to be accelerating not slowing down. so this could be important. with the angle of your body at takeoff it makes you under a little bit and you lose your hips a little early because of it. Not losing your hips at takeoff will become very important when you start gripping higher than 14ft. but you have an overall good looking jumping, nothing horribly wrong.

Wow, if you ever blow through a pole you'll end up faceplanting the track on those mats.

What you guys aren't seeing is that he has the cover still over half of the pit. I had to look at it a couple of times to see that myself. Later...Mike
