I'm with Bob. Once an airborne player touches the floor, he's no longer airborne. If, by some fluke of gravity, he is, then his point of departure has changed.

A player jumps. That's his point of departure, where he left the floor.

When he next touches the floor, he's landed. He can't land twice.

This ain't the triple jump.

You're all assuming the player touches the floor with a foot, right?
