 WHAT IS LONG JUMP?
BY: GROUP 5

This modern human life cannot be separated from the sports arena, as both the Buffalo
and the achievements of the need to maintain the condition of the body to stay healthy. Sport has
an important role in human life. Dacica (2015) stated that physical education and sport is an
important element in education and training, the goal is to form a strong conception of youth
regarding the practice of physical exercises and to assess the budget for spare time the purpose of
sanogenik, education and recreation. Sports can be formed into a healthy human being spiritual
as well as physical, has discipline, personality, a high sportifitas will eventually be formed a
quality human being
Education as a standard set of the existence of national standards as a minimum quality
specified nationals into standard content, standard process, standard of competency graduates,
educators and labor standards of education, and education assessment standards. Standard
assessment criteria are education about the mechanisms, procedures, and results in assessment
instruments learn learners. Subjects related to psychomotor is a more beorientasi subjects on the
movement and the emphasis on physical reactions and skill that involves the manipulation of the
muscles. The long jump is a sport that combines speed (speed), strength (stenght), suppleness
(flexibility), durability (endurance), and accuracy (acuration) in an effort to obtain the distance of
the jump as far. Purnomo & Dapan (2013) stated that the long jump is one of a number of
techniques that in competition in the sport of athletics.
Known as one of track and field’s two horizontal jumps, competitors sprint along a
runway and jump as far as possible into a sandpit from a wooden take-off board. The distance
travelled, from the edge of the board to the closest indentation in the sand to it, is then measured.
A foul is committed – and the jump is not measured – if an athlete steps beyond the board. Most
championship competitions involve six jumps per competitor, although a number of them, those
with the shorter marks, are often eliminated after three jumps. If competitors are tied, the athlete
with the next best distance is declared the winner. The event requires speed, explosive power,
strength and agility. At major championships the format is usually a qualification session
followed by a final.
The origins of the long jump can be traced to the Olympics in Ancient Greece, when
athletes carried weights in each hand. These were swung forward on take-off and released in the
middle of the jump in a bid to increase momentum. The long jump, as we know it today, has
been part of the Olympics since the first Games in 1896. The men’s event has seen some long-
standing world records by US jumpers. Jesse Owens jumped 8.13m in 1935, a distance that was
not exceeded until 1960. Bob Beamon flew out to a world record 8.90m in the rarefied air of
Mexico City at the 1968 Olympic Games a mark that remained until Mike Powell surpassed it
with a leap of 8.95m at the 1991 World Championships. As a winner of four successive Olympic
titles – from 1984 to 1996 - Carl Lewis is regarded as the world’s greatest male long jumper in
history. The inaugural women’s Olympic long jump took place in 1948 and athletes from five
different regions have struck gold in the event; Europe, North America, South America, Africa
and Oceania.
Long jumpers begin by sprinting, launch themselves into the air at a predetermined
location (also known as the take-off board), and attempt to cover the greatest distance possible in
the air before landing in a sand pit. Consequently, there are three parts to the overall course: The
takeoff board, The landing zone, The runway. The runway is 40 meters in length when used for
formal events. It is constructed of a rubberized material spread on concrete and resembles
a running track used in sprinting mid-distance or long-distance running competitions. There is a
take-off board that is 20 cm wide at the end of the runway. The take-off board and the runway
need to be parallel to one another. A foul line designates the take-off board’s end. For a specific
jump to be considered legal, the jumper’s shoe must have the toe behind the foul line when they
take off. Jumps that cross the line are considered foul jumps and are not scored.
The jumper lands in the sandpit that is situated on the opposite side of the take-off board
after ascending into the air. The distance traveled is the distance between the edge of the take-off
board to the closest indentation in the sand (created by any portion of the athlete’s body during
landing). The long jumper must finish the entire jump within a minute of entering the runway. If
they so choose, long jumpers are permitted to wear spikes, however, the sole of their shoe cannot
be any thicker than 13mm. In competitions, an athlete frequently receives a set number of
attempts, and the one who covers the greatest distance is rated as the winner. Athletes often get
six jumps in the final rounds of major tournaments like the Olympics or World Championships.
The finalists are chosen after a set of three trial round leaps, and they then get three further jumps
in the final to compete for medals. A long jump can be broken down into four separate actions:
the approach run, the final two strides, and the action in the air and landing.
These include methods for changing the body’s shape during flying. Three methods are
frequently applied when in the air. (1)Sail – The simplest of the bunch, the sail requires the
jumper to elevate their legs into a toe-touching posture as soon as they leave the ground. This
enables the body to maintain its momentum from takeoff and float or sail in the air for longer. (2)
Hang – After being in the air, the body is stretched and lengthened as much as possible. The
jumper extends their arms and legs as far as they can go and holds that position until they are at
their highest point. The jumper moves their legs forward into a landing position at the apex. (3)
Hitch-kick – The athletes move their arms and legs during the flight to maintain equilibrium.
This maneuver is also known as climbing or running in the air. Of the three approaches, this one
is the most difficult.
The goal of a long jumper is to glide into the sandpit rather than simply land there. An
athlete might use a variety of landing maneuvers to make sure the closest indentation their body
makes to the take-off board is as far away as it can be. Keeping their feet in front of their bodies
while fully extended from the hips is a common concern for athletes. Jumpers frequently move
their arms in sweeping motions after landing to support keeping the torso and legs forward.
Therefore, long jump training necessitates the mastery of a variety of athletic skills, including
sprinting.
