On May 17th, the Diamond League Shanghai Station competition began. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This year is the year of the World Championships, and at this time, all the track and field masters have come out of the hole, it is time to warm up, it is time to brush pb, everyone is preparing for the World Championships, except for one person, his name is Usain Bolt.

Every big year, months before the big game, Bolt hides somewhere, maybe in the Caribbean, maybe in Tahiti, maybe in the Aegean Sea, and no one knows where he is.

The World Athletics Championships and the Olympics generally start in August, and it is not until a month before the start of the competition that Bolt will swing out of the hole and find a field to run two shots, and the results are usually not too ideal. Just when everyone thought that Bolt was dead, the Jamaican Lightning would always let the world know in the finals of the World Championships and the Olympic Games: the fastest person in the world is still me Bolt!

This year's World Athletics Championships will kick off in our capital on August 22, so you won't be able to see Bolt at this point in May, and the devil knows where he is.

Duke really wanted to meet Bolt again, and it seemed that he would only be able to meet Bolt in August, at the Bird's Nest. (The main venue of the 2015 World Athletics Championships has been confirmed to be the Bird's Nest)

At 18 o'clock, the men's long jump competition is about to begin.

A total of 13 men's players participated in the long jump competition, and everyone drew lots before the game, and the first test jump of the No. 1 lottery was drawn, the second test jump of the No. 2 lottery was drawn, and so on.

Before the official start of the competition, the No. 1~13 players lined up in the long jump area according to the lottery number, and the on-site host introduced the players one by one.

Presenter: "Contestant No. 1, Lapierre from Australia. ”

The 70,000 or 80,000 spectators at the 80,000-person stadium shook their heads: "Who is this?" I don't know. ”

Host: "Contestant No. 2, Mayau from Micronesia. ”

The audience was even more confused, and many of them had even heard of Micronesia for the first time, let alone heard of players from such a country.

The players who can come to the Diamond League are ranked in the top 20 in the world, but for most ordinary spectators, there are not many men's long jumpers who can recognize their faces and name names. After Lewis and Powell, the international athletics world has indeed failed to produce a superstar long jumper.

However, it cannot be denied that the long jump is a global sport, and some people in Pacific island countries such as Micronesia also practice the long jump, and they have also practiced in the top 20 in the world.

Finally, when the host introduced the No. 6 player, there was a bit of fluctuation in the scene, "The No. 6 player, Rutherford from the United Kingdom. ”

Spectators: "This British, I know, the men's long jump champion at the London Olympics. ”

"I also know Rutherford, who is the worst Olympic men's long jump champion in the last 40 years."

Rutherford, a white British athlete, won the men's long jump at the London Olympics with a time of 8.31m, the worst time since Munich 1972 with 8.31m.

When the host introduced the No. 7 player, the scene erupted in thunderous cheers, and the No. 7 player was Duke.

Du Ke wore a red short suit, which is the uniform suit of the Chinese track and field team, and he smiled and waved to the audience: "I, Du Brush, is back."

The No. 8 athlete after Duke is the American Henderson, that is, the former protégé of Huntington, the foreign coach of the Chinese track and field team.

The No. 9 was another Chinese player, Li Jinze, who was also warmly welcomed by the crowd.

No. 10 is the American player Lawson, No. 11 is the Chinese player Wang Jianan, and the 12th is the American player Dundee, today's draw order is also a coincidence, three Chinese players, three American players one after the other, from the 7th to the 12th.

Of course, the average strength of the three American athletes is stronger than the three Chinese athletes, and Henderson is currently ranked first in the world in the men's long jump with a PB of 8.57m. Dundee is ranked fourth in the world and Lawson is ranked seventh.

In terms of the Chinese team, Li Jinze is ranked the highest in the world, he is ranked 18th in the world, and he participated in the men's long jump event according to the normal registration process with IAAF points.

Duke had no points in the long jump and finished behind the 1,000th. Wang Jianan, ranked 37th in the world, also competed with a wild card.

The policy of the Chinese track and field team is to take advantage of the home field of the Shanghai Railway Station, and all the players with some strength and ability will be arranged for him to play on the field, so as to accumulate experience in international competitions and train for the World Championships.

2015 is an extremely important year for Chinese track and field.

Whether the 1516 plan can be achieved or not, we can see the clues at the World Championships.

At the beginning of 2013, the Athletics Management Center formulated the 1516 plan: at the 2015 World Championships and the 2016 Rio Olympics, Chinese track and field will strive to win four medals, including one gold medal.

Therefore, 2015 is an extremely important year for Chinese track and field.

However, judging from the current situation, it seems that it is not very difficult for Chinese track and field to successfully achieve the 1516 plan, if Du Ke can appear in the Bird's Nest in August, 4 medals (including 1 gold medal) are in hand, which is quite promising, and it can even be said that it is nine out of ten.

At the beginning of 2013, Du Ke had not yet started to engage in track and field, otherwise the Athletics Management Center would never have taken 4 medals as the performance evaluation target at that time.

After the introduction of the players, the men's long jump competition is about to begin.

The long jump zone is on the outside of the 100m straight, which is sandwiched between the long jump zone and the central lawn.

The length of the long jump track needs to be at least 40 meters long and 1.22 meters wide. The length of the bunker is 8-10 meters (there is also a plastic road between the bunker and the take-off board), and the width is specified to be 2.75 meters.

The length of the starting board is the same as the width of the runway, which is 1.22 meters, and the width of the starting board is 20 centimeters. The rules of the long jump competition are actually very simple, at the moment of the athlete's jump, as long as the toe does not exceed the front end of the 20 cm width of the springboard, then the result after landing will be counted, otherwise it will be judged as a foul, and the test jump result will be invalid.

In large-scale events such as the Olympic Games and the World Championships, the long jump competition is the same as the high jump, triple jump, and pole vault, all of which are compared to a round of qualification.

Each athlete tries three jumps in the qualifying round, and if they make it to the finals, they try three more jumps.

There is no qualifying competition for the long jump competition of the Diamond League, and the rules are equally simple, each of the 13 male players jumps three times, and the best jump score is the final result of the player, and whoever has the farthest final score is the champion.

The men's long jump competition officially began.

After the first attempt of the first jump, the first five competitors committed two fouls and three counted, with the best result being No. 1 Australia's Lapierre, who jumped 8.21m.

At this time, the No. 6 British athlete, nicknamed "the most water Olympic champion in history", came out, he was full of confidence, and he did not feel very watery.

Rutherford stood more than 40 meters away from the springboard, and his run-up preparation was to spread his feet back and forth, lean back, and raise his arms, holding the movement for a few seconds, brewing feelings.

Regardless of the national long jumper, it seems that most of the people like to use this backward running preparation movement. I don't understand why, but I think it's pretty powerful anyway.

Rutherford started to run after brewing his feelings, his cadence was slower in the first few steps, and the faster he ran back, which is a typical smooth acceleration, which is what most athletes do, which is in line with human running habits.

The Olympic champion of Zaishui is also an Olympic champion, Rutherford's running movement is very standard, and the starting jump is also standard, he jumped out, fell into the pit, the referee raised the white flag, and the result counted, 8.31m.

Coincidentally, 8.31m was Rutherford's gold medal at London 2012.

Rutherford is currently in first place with 8.31m, but he shook his head a little dissatisfied, as if he felt that he should have jumped a little farther. The Olympic champion knows that this is not the same as it used to be, and that 8.31m is no longer a king and that he needs to jump farther to be safe.

The long jump competition uses an infrared rangefinder to measure the athlete's landing performance, and the result can be obtained in 1 second.

Footage of Rutherford's jump begins to be replayed, with some close-ups of his feet stepping on the gangplank.

As can be seen in the replay, Rutherford's toes were 15 centimeters away from the front of the springboard, and the words "15cm" were printed on the screen to remind the audience that the athlete's starting position was remote, so that TV viewers could get a deeper understanding of the game.

Therefore, Rutherford felt that he could jump even further in this jump, and if he jumped a few centimeters in advance, he might be able to jump more than 8.35 meters.

The electronic bulletin board at the scene showed the results of Rutherford's jump and the wind speed: 8.31m, 0.5m/s.

The long jump competition also takes into account the wind speed conditions, if the wind speed exceeds 2 m/s, the ranking of this competition will not change, but the results will not be counted in the normal wind speed results database.

It seems that the wind speed will not exceed today, which is good news for Duke, he is going to make a normal wind speed result in the long jump, as long as he jumps more than 8.15 meters at the normal wind speed, he will also swipe out the World Championships, the Olympic Games two long jump individual tickets.

At this time, it was the turn of No. 7 Duke to come out and make his first attempt.

Du Ke cut to the [eagle's wings] and walked more than fifty meters away from the springboard, his running preparation was different from others, he did not twist around, back and forth, he walked a few steps slowly and then started directly, and started to run with a high cadence.

As soon as he started, he raised the horizontal speed of the run-up to a very high level, which is a typical positive acceleration for athletes with absolute speed.

Duke kept the speed for a frenzy, getting closer and closer to the springboard, and he maintained his stride and continued to increase his cadence to form a fast board.

Jumped!

Douc leaped to his feet, his super-fast run-up level speed translated into high-energy jumps, and the sudden force of his legs allowed him to gain a large lifting angle.

The take-off force and the angle of the jump work synergistically to help humans overcome gravity and stay in the air for a little longer. Running speed, jumping force, and rising angle are the three core elements of long jump.

After taking off, Duke stepped into the air dance steps that perfectly combined power and beauty!

The purpose of the three-step mid-air step change is to reduce the forward rotation of the body after taking off, in short, in order to jump farther, the rotation force in the air is too large, and it will deviate when landing.

Mr. Yang, the commentator of CCTV 5, applauded: "Duke Ke, he combines the technical characteristics of Powell and Lewis!" He is an outstanding long jumper in the high-jump running type! ”

Powell is the best representative of the "high jumpers" and is known for his flying angles. (Long jump PB is 8.95m, world record)

Carl Lewis, who ran the 100m with a PB of 9.86 seconds, was the world record holder in the men's 100m, and he was the king of the "running" long jumpers, and his biggest weapon in the long jump was his terrifying speed at the world's number one (at the time). (The long jump PB is 8.91m, the second best long jump in history)

Mr. Yang invented a new genre to describe Duke, saying that Duke combines Powell's "high jump" and Lewis's fast run, and Duke is the originator of the "high jump running" genre.

After Duke landed, the audience was boiling, and the audience was very excited: "Duke jumped, visually more than 8.50 meters!" The British parallel Olympic champion is simply weak compared to our Du Brush! (To be continued.) )
