This chapter describes the mechanics of the Fosbury-flop style of high jumping, and explains a rationale followed for the evaluation of the techniques used by individual elite high jumpers. Since 1982, our laboratory has studied the techniques of the best high jumpers in the USA. This work is part of the Scientific Support Services programme sponsored by USATF (USA Track and Field, the governing body for track and field athletics in the USA) at several biomechanics laboratories. The goal of the programme is to give the best US athletes biomechanical information to help improve their performance through changes in technique. Personnel from our laboratory generally film the top American high jumpers every year at the final of the USATF Championships or at some other major competition. The films are subsequently analysed using three-dimensional biomechanical research
