Do you think that which bolt being so tall that a tail wind would aid him more because of his bigger frame? (help him generate his body to top speed and beyond faster?) i realise that if it would help the taller sprinters more than the shorter ones it wouldn’t be by very much at all (0.01 or so maybe?) I’m just curious as to if it would make a difference or not
Interesting question, I am thinking it is more of a disadvantage though.
Unless the wind was greater than his speed (30mph), he would have more drag force against his body from more surface area, which would negate any advantage. Most sprinters wear speed suits to create less drag on the front side by not having flapping fabric that can pick up wind.
