i think that she may be pulling with her top arm. Her bottom arm collapses very nicely. She can get inverted smoothly and quickly and her front arm does go to the inside of the pole.

girl vaulter rotateing after take off

I have a first year girl vaulter who rotates very badly after take off. Im talking 180 degrees when she inverts. When watching her from all angles it seems her trail leg sweeps right after she jumps.

pretty much. The ability to use bigger poles comes with strength, speed, and skill.

Exactly, this is my 5th year of vaulting and i have moved down in length of poles. I had to use 14ft polls out of necesity in highschool because we didnt have access to much else. Aswell, like most vaulters, we dont have the money to fork over for our own poles. Then when i went to a club for my fir...

One semi common thing i see on this post is people dont want to lift a lot of weight because they dont want to get too bulky. See my grandfather and uncle were both amatuer body builders, they told the size gain in major lifting exercises is mostly genetic. You must not fear lifting more and more we...
