Top 3 List

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.
The greater the challenge, the more glorious the triumph
