Fritz Pingl actually demonstrated the technique 10 years earlier, but it did not get popular at the time because there was just sand on the other side and you had to turn in the air again to land the jump on your feet.
i think it's extending the left arm out instead of hoding both arms in like Fosbury did so that you can even distribute your center of gravity downward even more because now your arch is greater with your arms out
Anatomically the majority of contemporary high jumpers utilizing backward dive bar clearance mechanics have far less spinal flexibility backward (ROM) than bending forward. The pelvic region of the body is lifted earlier in the backward dive bar clearance method in relation to the straddle method passing over the crossbar. The highly flexed swing knee utilized in the backward dive take-off mechanism permits a decreased time frame to complete execution. High jumpers utilizing the backward dive technique normally develop greater run-up horizontal momentum, and apply greater downward force at take-off (greater center of gravity vertical displacement) than older straddle approach methodology.
I once had the opportunity of discussing the high jump with Dick Fosbury. He knew of my intense obsession with the Russian school of the jump. He simply stated to me, "I simply use increased momentum in the approach as Valeriy Brumel did with my backward bar clearance method. I had no interest or time to learn the Russian techniques." He was a really gracious elite athlete!
Nothing to really do with the video, but I've 2 uncles of Indonesian ancestry. Malay and Puerto Rican to be precise. Surname Awal. Both now live in Florida, USA, but originally from NYC. Hello cousin 😁
The term you explained as a "centre of mass" is Actually centre of gravity, not centre of mass. And centre of mass can not change it's referential position, but centre of gravity can.
Mechanical engineer here, I thought the exact same thing lol. Center of mass is the point at which the distribution of mass in a body is equally distributed in all directions and does not change, whereas the center of gravity is the point in a body at which all moments due to gravity are zero

Really interesting !
Is the main difference between the two the horizontal velocity?

What about the curved run up? Why not just run in a straight line but arriving at the same angle that they currently do?
Dick Fosbury - Legend forever
Would like to get more details! :)

i got embarassed in high jump i need to get better
real shit
Due to women having a lower center of gravity, do you think this would affect the strategy of high jump for female jumpers?
Among athletes competing in long jump it isn't really any different. The high jump women aren't built like the mom from The Incredibles
