Very nice video, thank you! Where could I find examples of abs exercises helpful for a good landing? @Cameron Gary

To be honest, I don't believe excessive exercises for the abdominal a help the horizontal jump landings. Regular core training (planks, leg lifts, etc.) will suffice. The landing position is a result of the actions that precede it...specifically the flight mechanics (described in the video) and how your body deals with forward rotation as a result of your take-off. Remember...everything about the jump is determined by the last three steps of the run and the take-off. Therefore, the vast majority of the training should be focused there.
