%X This study analyzed the kinematic parameters of the triple jump in male athletes from Zhejiang Province¡¯s athletics team, using three-dimensional photography and the SIMI Motion 10.0 system. Key findings were: 1) Zhejiang Province¡¯s male triple jump athletes had an average stride length of 2.05 ¡À 0.15 m for the penultimate step and 2.14 ¡À 0.14 m for the last step in the approach run, with a 0.09 m difference. The penultimate step¡¯s center of mass averaged 8.32 ¡À 0.20 m/s in velocity, while the last step and take-off moment averaged 8.12 ¡À 0.25 m/s and 7.95 ¡À 0.14 m/s, respectively. 2) Significant correlations existed between kinematic parameters (landing instant velocity, take-off instant velocity, take-off instant vertical velocity) and triple jump performance across all phases. The strongest correlation was found between landing instant horizontal average velocity during the bound phase and athletes¡¯ triple jump performance (¦Ã = 0.97, P < 0.01). Positive correlations were also observed between landing instant horizontal average velocity in the hop phase and take-off instant horizontal average velocity in the bound phase, with respective coefficients of ¦Ã = 0.93 and ¦Ã = 0.90 (P < 0.05). In summary, this study suggests that male triple jump athletes from Zhejiang Province should focus on improving their absolute speed during the approach run. Enhancing horizontal velocity during the hop phase¡¯s landing and take-off instant in the bound phase can contribute to enhancing triple jump performance.
