[joshuni]

ok, i could be wrong, my metric ain't too good, but isn't 3m the height of a standard high dive? if so, dang, mad crazy props to that guy! :eek:

Not sure if you may have misunderstood. Your reply suggests you may think this was a vertical hop. Yes, 2.6 metres is about as high as you can reach stood on tiptoe. But this was a HORIZONTAL jump. Still damned good of course, but not a high jump.

The human race is a species so incredibly intelligent that it has invented
Gods to explain anything it does not understand.....although my friend Dave
said no amount of Gods will ever explain how a bra can be removed without
disturbing the T-shirt. I told him the process is called a Moebius strip.
The other side of the T-shirt remains unreachable.

By the way, the unnofficial record is 2.87. Set by some one in australia or New Zealand.

Yeah that was Joe from Wellington NZ it was a huuuge jump...

Yeah that was Joe from Wellington NZ it was a huuuge jump...

Also note Joe's 2.87m jump was 2.87 metres over a gap, rather than the usual competition method of trying to clear a distance defined by two sticks. It is good to compare apples with apples...

I am looking forward to this year's NZ unicycling nationals where I hope to see both Joe Dyson and Pete Van Boekhout break the current world record.

Is there any world unicycling record book, or a web site?

yes, as am i. not only that, but the NZ Uni Nat's will be the best one to date (go auckland, woot).
on a side note: what are the exact conditions required for a long jump record such as this to become a world record?

[tomtrevor]

nice job, i measured to see how far 2.6m was the other day and its like freakyish long to jump a on a uni

[iridemymuni]

i would have trouble jumping 2.6m, without the uni

[tomtrevor]

you must be either really unco or have a really bad technique for jumping
