I vaulted in Pennsylvania in HS, I was recruited by syracuse, rutgers, yale (yes yale) tennessee and South Carolina. I wanted to improve and figured that vaulting at a school with the warmest weather would allow me to do so. We have a indoor facility here at USC, but only use it from december till t...

sorry to hear about you brother russ...i m sure you are now aware of the impact of his loss in this pole vault community. you were and will always be a class act and i hope you will find strength through this tragedy.

i ve jumped in the clovis street vault in 2000 and 2001, and i must say thats its awesome! the fans dont care about the heights, they just want to see people make bars...so you have to play them a little, and celebrate like crazy after clearing your opening height. the golf and fishing is fun too, y...

i agree with SLIckVT

skipper IS good, but i dont know if he can handle the pressure that goes along with trials.

i m going with hartwig, stevenson, buller

i can remember that high dive incident like it was yesterday. thanks to PVPAUL17 i was introduced to knoxvilles finest. they were cool to everyone, except for sky cock who was underage. but i dont think he minded the headlock officer briggs put him in one bit

there goes paul again talking about his hot guy friends. maybe you could coax riley and co. out of retirement. i jumped in 2 street vaults in clovis CA with the NAPVA. they are alot of fun. we tried to do one in columbia SC during our st pattys day festival 3 years ago, we couldnt pull it off though...

paul...you still suck! maybe me and steddum will come down for the jock jump if the brain will agree to jump.

i agree with ashcraftpv....i too took accepted a position 2 weeks after the wrightsville beachvault. i work either 9-5, or 2-10. believe me, it sucks. i still live in SC, and lift on a fairly regular basis, but as far as running goes, its hard to train and not sacrifice anything work related. i woul...

"Doo Doo" Brown is not only a great coach and recruiter, he is a great pole vaulter. I was a vaulter for him for 4 years, and he helped me learn different aspects of the vault not too many coaches dwell on. I was a 15'5 PA state champ, and ended up with a collegiate PR of 17'1. I developed a bunch o...

everyone needs to jump at the famous "Bubble" at the Univ of South Carolina. in addition to the buzzing lights, we also get to hear the mellow thumps of thousands of tennis balls hitting the court, and fence as we run along side it toward the box. ask skycock or carolina21. they ll agree there isnt ...

ive seen this a hundred times....anyone who has seen rocky danners jump has seen it too.

i m originally from PA, but i vaulted at USC, so i ve seen both high and Low extremes. I dont know if you guys agree...but i personally feel that warmer weather makes poles softer. i m not sure if theres any scientific data concerning fiberglass and excessive heat, but i feel like i get alot more ou...
