jump71 > sighting is OK, arch is decent.  note how jumpers' legs are out of kilter with the plane of the bar and how now the plant leg knee is driving.  No need for that left arm to be 18" above jumpers' torso, all the lift it generated on take-off has been exhausted.
jump71 > a common theme with jumpers--note the lead arm being thrown over the bar first.  you get away with this at lower levels, but once the bar is a foot over your head this doesn't work.  The J curve approach, combined with speed, will bring the body into the pit.  there is no need to jump into the pit; there is only a need to jump UP over the bar.  Note the drive knee--did it stop too soon or is this a good example of equal and opposite physics (power block)?
jump71 > excellent knee drive--parallel and strong.  I get the sense here that arms will become counter-productive over the bar due to the extreme extension displayed here.

jump71 > main issue with this jumper is not knowing body positioning and timing when progressing over the bar.
jump71 > good flattening of the pelvis, however legs are a bit too flat.
jump71 > jumper doesnt know positioning relative to the bar; little arch; leg positioning should be somewhere between these two extremes.
jump71 > sighting off; no vertical knee drive; right shoulder will follow right arm into the bar.
