	CBC.CA - IAAF World Track and Field Championships
		The triple jump was at one time considered the realm of long jump bottom-feeders who simply couldn't hope to compete with the Jesse Owens of the track and field world.
		In short, they strive to transfer as much energy and momentum from one phase of the jump to the next, and that can take a huge toll on the body, which is one reason why the triple jump is such a specialty sport.
		You're jumping long distances at great speed and not only absorbing the impact of each hard landing, but trying to transfer your moment to the next phase of the jump.

		The triple jump is an obstacle that most people add to their course later on, but more often than not, it is an obstacle that many dogs stumble over in an agility trial!
		The challenge is for your dog to clear the jump by not only jumping high, but long.

	NOTES ON THE TRIPLE JUMP
		The triple jump is often a very misunderstood track and field event.
		The truth of the matter is that for a person who is willing to commit great time and effort into developing the necessary speed, great strength, superior motor skills, essential techniques, and a special toughness, then the triple jump may be just what the doctor ordered.
		The double-arm technique has the greatest potential to allow continuity of velocity from phase to phase of the triple jump effort.
