If so, can people from the Chicago area PM me please? I have some questions.


Thanks

It does, however, you have to enable that function.

I was trying to PM him as well. Cannot help you until I can PM you in the first place.

Peace

My bad...

I just enabled it. Let the PM's commence!

Not to change the subject or anything, but your board name begs the question - how far did you triple jump???

Sounds more like a checkers reference to me...

Or maybe he tosses it up badly to start the game....

I think he's referencing his date with those triplets.

Furthest was 47'7.

That's about how high I toss the ball at the beginning of the game as well.

Whew! I am glad it is not because every game you do goes to double OT.

That's a pretty sweet jump...HS or college?

I coach the jumpers at a small HS in Washington State...got a freshman who jumped 38'10" in his first meet last week. Terrible form, but we're working on getting that hop knee to cycle thru instead of staying straight...he could be good if he keeps at it.

I have no idea how far I jumped, but I own the record for the second longest triple jump in my high school (all time record since our school has now consolidated and no longer exsitsts). I suppose in all fairness I should mention that we only went to 1 meet that featured the triple jump and 3 of us entered with no previous experience or practice. It's still a record though Dammit!!!!

That jump was in high school.

Didn't do college track because of, well, I wanted to ref.

The national Record is 54' 10 1/4" for High School. That is an awesome Jump

For a long time, I was on the record holding boys shuttle relay team at my school. Same situation, though, as it was a rarely run relay at boys meets.
I ran track 3 years in hs, and never once saw a meet with a triple jump.
