          i think after slowing it down a bit, by pausing and moving the curser, i reached too much on the actual takeoff…im really suprised i jumped even that far lol

          yeah after watching it slowed down i would say you reached a bit, also you could have leaned a tad bit further back on the landing, giving you a few more inches maybe, then again im not a coach, just a fellow long jumper who hasnt jumped 7.26 yet hah

          well basically, if youhad heald your chest higher for a split second longer you could have had your legs more parallel to the ground, getting you a few more inches.  when you land, you knees are bent a lot, you could have kicked them out a bit higher and ladned more on your heels and ripped downwards when you hit sand
