The triple jump competition consists of three actions. The first is a hop, a jump which is landed with the takeoff foot. The second action is the step, which is landed on the opposite foot. The final action taken is the jump, in a movement similar to the long jump. The final jump is landed in a pit full of sand. Each athlete is given three attempts to jump as far as possible.
Olympic weightlifting is comprised of two events: the snatch, and the ‘clean and jerk.’ In the snatch, the bar is lifted from the floor to above the athlete’s head in one single motion. The clean and jerk motion is a two-stage movement, lifting the bar from the ground to shoulder height, and then overhead.
Competitors participating in trampoline must make ten contacts with the trampoline during their routines. Each routine may last up to 90 seconds. Each athlete will perform two sets of 10 routines – single, double or triple somersaults, with and without twists.
