No,obviously not for one legged jumpers, and contradictory to popular belief, neither is it for bi-lateral jumpers.

Being lower to the ground would mean more knee bend, and more time taken to get into and out of the jumpstop phase. The goal is to spend as little time as possible in the jumpstop phase as possible.

Watch good one legged jumpers like Kadour Ziani, do they go low to the ground when jumping? no.
