This is a cut and paste from an AA release.
–“” “”“Under the guidance of former world record-holder Uwe Hohn, “””“”----“”“”“Bannister is one of Australia’s brightest athletics prospects and is working with Hohn as part of a six-month pilot program commissioned by Athletics Australia to ensure Bannister is coached to the level the national sporting body believes he can achieve.”“”“”—“”“”“began working with Hohn in Germany in 2008"”“”___“”“”“Hohn has relocated to Melbourne to work more closely with Bannister and the national sporting organisation.”“”“”
When I first read the above I assumed it was something new happening, the new bit is the coach is beind relocated to Australia.
Lee Brown was Nordic Australia and he supplied Jarrod with javelins, I am not sure but Lee’s dad Eric had something to do with the coaching. Lee offered to sell me Nordic A, I didn’t take his offer.
Wasn’t it Uwe Hohn the man who threw the jav by the tail or Tom Petrinoff. Anyway the technique was banned, went too far.
Off topic – the jav was redesigned, imagine the 6s drag cars being told they could use parts available only at the dealerships, and could no longer use ethanol. The jav used to break the record was an OTE (Dick Held) and was designed to be thrown in the Atlanta conditions, The Americans are good at this type of thing, at the Americas Cup yacht racing they used to kick everyones butt.
I have no doubt AA are doing what they think best and I would love Jarrod to be the best.
Back to the drags, would you use the driver or the mechanics for the new car.
Too many questions
