What would you say are the three most important things in a jump?

I'd say:
1) Early plant
2) Tall takeoff
3) Quick swing

i would say
1.) Mental attitude
2.) intensity
3.) putting every part of the jump together. No one part more important than another.

1: confident
2: big take off
3: swing

but as vault3rb0y said above, those are good also...
