3x Team USA High Jumper Dontavious Hill breaks down why toe drag is one of the most misunderstood topics in high jump, why elite jumpers have always dragged their toe, and what actually limits height at takeoff.

You’ll learn:
- Why toe drag does NOT meaningfully slow your jump
- The difference between natural toe drag and excessive drag
- What toe drag really reveals about sinking, slowing down, and takeoff mechanics

Perfect for high school high jumpers (and parents) who’ve been told toe drag is “bad” and want to focus on fixes that actually lead to PRs.
