Have a google of 'focal plane shutter' and you'll understand what's happening with x-sync etc.
Your camera can run at up to 1/250sec with flash, with an IR trigger or sync cord, but if you're using a radio trigger they usually introduce a very slight delay, hence the suggestion of 1/200sec. If you still get a thin dark line or shadow at the bottom of the frame, go to 1/160sec.
Ambient blurring is a potential problem with kids leaping around, and it will show up most against a pure white background. The flash will freeze the movement, but the very long shutter speed of 1/8sec you used has allowed too much ambient to burn through.
Raising the x-sync will reduce that dramatically, but for a complete solution, turn down or switch off the modelling lights in the HiLight.
