What is now called the Tripple Jump event had a different name back 40+ years ago. It was called the "Hop-step-jump".

As Lawrence said.....You run up to the "board" or starting point. You try to have your foot on the board.... but not over the board. If your foot goes over the board, the jump is disqualified. Each jumper gets to make 5 or 6 jumps. Only his best jump counts.

What ever foot is used to "take off" [steps on the board] is the foot that touches the ground next.....ie. a HOP. Then the person takes a step where he lands on the other foot. Next the person makes a "Jump" where he lands on both feet in the sand pit.

Congradulations on your jumping. Good luck at the LSU meet.
