Lusa has the longest legs Petter Hegre has ever seen and it is not surprising that she is a high jumper for the Ukrainian Olympic team.

SHE IS a towering 186m, a 60 kilo streak of lightning energy now in training for the next Olympic Games. Lusa has, apart from those skyscraper legs, narrow hips, a slender sensitive face and pearly white perfect skin. Her personal high jump record is 185 cm, she must achieve another 10 cm to ensure her place on the team.

Now 19, she has a little over 3 years to make that result. "Piece of cake" she says, "just don't show these photos to the press when I receive my medal in Beijing, China in 2008." It is hard to know whether she is joking or not.

She enjoys posing for the camera and, for members of Hegre.com, this is a great opportunity to see an international athlete demonstrating how sexy she really is.
