Awsome thanks to the man behind the camera and the man who shares this videos
I thought asafa had his worse start ever. sorry but i don’t have the time to list all the races where he ran slower than this!
Between Asafa and Justin 9.95s yesterday, i think Asafa is the best, but Justin can end the season with a better performance.
Why you say this?
Longer season for Asafa? (Commonwealth Games)

Any video from Martinique, Guadeloupe, or Modesto for the jumps (woman)
Let me know!!!
Thanks!
Just personal feeling seeing their careers and their races so far this year. Hope they will both run in Athens meetings and the wind will be ok in this case i think Gatlin wins.
Just watched the video…I find it suspect that they both run the same time especially when the clocked actually showed 9.99! (If you stop the video as the cam zooms to the clock) That is some rounding down…9.99 -9.95! Wow… The same happened in Gatlins race…(Clock stopping at 9.92 rounded UP to 9.95).
Maybe its me, but I can’t see how this was ‘one of the worst starts ever’ Before I saw the race I had heard how 'bad ’ his start was…I thought me may have got left sitting in the blocks or reacted really badly…But I didn’t see evidence of that…the guy to his left had a great start…So are we lead to believe that if he isn’t putting a gap on guys from 0-50m then he’s had a terrible start? Maybe others have realised that this part of race actually sets up the latter and have sharpened up! 
Thoughts?
The times on the screens are just given as an indication for specators. The accurate time is searched on the photofinish.
In Kingston, the screen gave 22.19 for women’s 200m (actual time 22.14), 44.69 for men’s 400 (44.67), 12.73 for 100mh (12.69), 13.24 for 110mh (13.30), 9.38 for women’s 100m (11.28!!).
I’ve worked on the video, and the first 30m and 60m were about the same as he did in Commonwealth. He reached 60m in around 6.44 and 80m in 8.16 (compared to 6.45 and 8.20 in Melbourne for 10.03, and 6.41 and 8.10 last year for his 9.84 on the same Kingston track with more wind). Impossible to give numbers from Gatlin video because no marks on the track, only around 8.20 at 80m. The 60m time was probably just under 6.50.
having watched asafa’s race i am more impressed with his final 30 than ever.his stride is really improving and opening up more in the latter stages.
did anyone else notice this?
Powell’s start and first 60 meters were not technically sound. The angle of his trunk position was way off compared to all of his 100m races at the Commonwealth. I am 100% sure that the inefficiency of the initial 60 meters dramatically affected the last 40 meters in a negative way.

Oh…I see…so it was the starters fault! :rolleyes:
Today i read that Gatlin won 6:3 in direct comps. Asafa’s last victory was in August 2004…
But i personally think that Asafa will make the race this year.
I also read that Gatlin was banned because of doping in 2002 or so.
What was the reason?
his ADD medicine had somethin in it
