Thanks Doris - very good clips for that era.
Both Jenkins bros looked very good. But I have a question. If David could do a 3A in 1957 why didn't he ever do them in 57, 58. 59 or 60 competitons?
That seems very odd, to have a jump and not use it for four years??
Or did he try and not land them? I thought Brian O was the first to land 3A's in competition and the first in the Olympics in '84
