  • Chase Jackson

    Nice interview! I’m a fan of the weight events having last thrown 35 years ago. I’m a big fan of Chase and believe she will exceed 22 before she is done. I also like that she pointed out the move to rotational technique and its present and future impact with impressive young throwers coming up. Well done!

  • Great Interview of Al

    I was a junior college athlete throwing shot and discus in 1972. Al came to the West Coast Relays in Fresno and I was fortunate enough to get onto the field close to the throwing ring. I used a Super * move camera and filmed all of his throws. Seeing a smaller thrower (shorter than most) but with such amazing strength and quickness was amazing. That night Al threw 69-2. As I recall he was friendly and talked easily with the other athletes. Loved following him. Super thrower.
