Answer the following.
Explain the event triple jump.
Answer
Answer
AITriple jump is a jumping event made of three continuous phases:
1. Hop: the athlete takes off from the board and lands on the same foot.
2. Step: the athlete lands on the opposite foot.
3. Jump: the athlete lands in the sand pit with both feet.
The jump is measured from the front edge of the take-off board to the nearest mark made in the sand. Each athlete gets three trials, and the best eight take three more.
