Does anyone know if there are some good long jumpers coming up. I remember a guy in the 90s from Russia. I think his name was Robert Emmiyan (or something like that). He went 29.1 at a meet in Russia during a time when Bob Beamon's record still stood. I saw him in a meet in California on TV where he went over 28. He was legit, but good for just a short time. Maybe he got injured or something.
 
There is a kid from the Ukraine that broke the junior
world record twice.I will get his name for you.I have
to go to work and can't remember.He will be a incredible
jumper at the senior level and should medal.John
Thornell of Aus. is another good young kid.We will have
to post some top guys at the long jump and the triple
jump on here soon.
 
I believe young Ukraine Long Jumper's name is Victor Kosnetsov. Not totally positive but fairly sure.
 
Emmiyan was a terrific jumper. He is Armenian and won the '86 Euros and was second to Lewis at the '87 Worlds.
