  2. How its evolved • The way the athletes jump has changed over time. • Dick Fosbury revolutionised the sport by being the first athlete to jump with this technique. • Since then every athlete in the sport has copied him.

  3. Further Improvenments Possible • They could get springier shoes to help with the jump.

  4. Equipment or Athlete • The athlete is definately more important as there is very little equipment used. • Over time the bars have been made lighter so that it is easier to knock them off. • This means the athlete must have a better jump to fully clear the jump.
