before this race hes been faaaaar from it, good enough to win though, but not Bolt esque

Of course he didn't look great....athletes peak for the championships. They are not in world record shape all the time. NOW it's time.

@Will...no, I'm saying its more speed mechanics than drugs. You think hes the only one on something?

My dad commented at the length of his legs below the knee.

He has great leg speed with a long stride. Plus being black and on drugs = so much better than everyone else.

Certainly not the Irish curse.

Ha!

I think that much give him some bio-mechanical advantage?

I could be wrong!

Coach is Back! · « **Reply #30 on:** August 27, 2011, 08:15:51 PM »

Ursus pretty much nailed it. Length x Stride + forced application (power) = speed but most of all perfect hand mechanics.

I love watching Bolt run, he looks like he's jogging and not even trying and covers 100 m in 10 seconds, lol.

x10. Me and my ex were blown away watchin' him durin' the Olympics. Didn't even look like he was tryin' and he was SOOOOOOO far ahead of the pack. Unreal.

Did very well. Racing the 2nd best in the world at the time, weighing a lot more and not having trained specifically for it.

Who was on the most drugs?

Shit not only was he big but you couldn't run away from him either.

(he stumbles -not sure if its that video- on phone) but there is another angle and he stumbles, obviously he wasnt going to beat him.

So he got eliminated in the final because of a single false start.

WTF, you don't get a courtesy false start in track anymore? Since when?

It was bought in last year,stupid change of rule,all done to please tv channels, after fucking up the biggest name in athletics expect it to change back for next years olympics.

Ursus · « **Reply #43 on:** August 28, 2011, 07:45:57 AM »

5 out of the top 7 sprinters in the world this year did not make the final. Four did not even come to the championships for numerous reasons.

I do not like the falso start rule and honestly preferred it where EVERYONE was allowed one false start.

Ursus · « **Reply #44 on:** August 28, 2011, 07:52:49 AM »

Aziz Zakari was montrous a few years back.

John Capel I think was pretty big - Some Yank was massive a few years back too. harry actually looks slimmed down a little from when he was younger.

last 2-3 races hes been looking "slow". I guess not risking to get caught before olympics (besides this race)

Looks like he got the start figured out, thats whats been lacking in the last few races, hes always managed to catch up but not great starts like that

It's really no surprise Swede is an expert on sprinting ....He has to run as fast as he can just to keep up with regular sized people walking around

First Blood · « **Reply #48 on:** August 28, 2011, 10:01:19 AM »

The rules should obviously apply to Bolt, just as anyone else but the IAAF have really messed up by creating such a stupid rule. They are sabotaging their own sport. Sucks.
