The article presents a study which examines the kinematics behind the buffering technique in taking-off process of Chinese elite high jumper Huang Haiqiang. The study was undertaken with the use of two cameras to shoot the activities of the athlete which were analyzed by SIMI software from Germany. Results show that buffering is lighter with13.24 inches knee angle at maximum buffering time. It notes that there is a disparity in Y velocities of the jump leg at taking-off.
