check out the section about establishing a pivot foot. it discusses what a player can/cannot do when both feet hit the floor simultaneously and what a player can/cannot do when a player "alights his/her feet nearly simultaneously". there is a difference....the initial act - deemed to be a jump stop - is not considered traveling.
in my experience, the higher the level you work, the more you will see the jump stop (whether simultaneous or nearly simultaneous) used.
