Default It's the year of the Leap Day...show your cards of ballplayers leaping
Here's some to start things off. I think there used to be a colony in Hawaii for such cards.

In an effort for inclusion, so that the T206 crowd doesn't feel left out, I am sharing a pair of leaping (we assume that's what he is doing) McQuillen lizards, and let's get non-basebally with a T218 as well.

Here's a couple from m101:

A powerful leap! The back of Ewry's T230 notes that he was "almost a chronic invalid" before he began athletic work.

Ten Two (Harry) Lords (presumptively) a-leaping...

Ugh! I even made myself groan with that one.

I always think of these two used in the Topps 1956 cards. These were the "in action" photo in the background.
