200cm Rolling Hop Comp (Long Jump)

I've been practicing rolling hops lately and I had so much fun with the 75cm comp (high jump) so I wanted to create this comp. So yeah the rules...

-Must have never did a rolling hop 200cm or more in length
-Must be on film and show measuring tape
-Cannot be 199.9cm, must be 200cm or more
-Must lay out something along the starting line from where you hop and where the 200cm mark is so we can see if your tyre has touched it
-When 3 people enter we will start

Have I missed anything?

Just one more comment I would like to make. I filmed one of my 180cm rolling hops and I found that my tyre compresses so much so that if I hop 15cm further than the 200cm mark, the tyre touches the 180cm mark so is this a 180cm hop or a 195cm hop? (Hope this makes sense)

Good Luck All.

i'd say its a 180cm hop. but in competition the length of ur hop is basically just watever the length between the two markers r (presuming u clear the distance without touching either marker).

i would b in but my internet is too slow for me to bother uploading a short clip in order for me to win a colourful piece of text.

You are probably rite except for the winning the colourful piece of text though. The colourful piece of text is wonderful. I could just stare at it all day for the rest of my life.

if you land it tomorrow you will be out of the competition because only two people have joined. And this message does not mean that I am joining.

Not sure why I am on this thread but it would be cool to see 200cm long jump.

Good luck.
