It's called the "long jump."
Prior to the 1960's, or thereabouts, some people referred to it as the "broad jump".
Also, prior to the 60's, the "triple jump" was called the "Hop-skip-jump" or Hop-step jump".

Years ago it was called the broad jump but now it's pretty much called the long jump by everyone. It's like the US used to call the triple jump the 'hop, step and jump" but now, like the long jump, the US has adopted the term "triple jump".
