well

you guys need to stop and understand
i would never brag..it was for to tell people what happens and i wish pits were so much less money and schools buy bigger pits when you get on a pole and you blow through it and it launches you... i jump 12'6 capping a 13 foot pole..and i am skimming over 13 right now

Tips..
No matter what you always want your standard deep.. if you are getting high with stands 25 or closer you in danger and you actually have a crappy vault.. yes your vaulting is very crappy and its dangerous.. work on speed.. overall to get high you must have speed..then comes technique and training......

oh come guys.....
a good vault for a 9th grader is 10'6... but thats around where i live. The junior high distric qualifing is 8'6.. high school is 10ft..from where i live. And state qualifing is 13ft. I jumped 11'9 in 9th grade..i was ranked 1st in the distric :P . But keep on trying. You want to spend more time off...
