Re: Help me get on a bigger pole
Thank you for the concern cat lady, but here in alabama i don't have the best pole vault setup, and if that barbell plate was not there, and the base protectors were, then the standards would collapse on top of me if i were to land on the bungie wrong. (which has almost happened) so the plate is saf...

Re: Help me get on a bigger pole
thanks for the feedback i've been working on my takeoff as my main focus for a while, its usually closer to on but this one is more under. The pole i was bending too much was my 13' 140 where i was holding about 12'4" on. I'll get another video as soon as i can but the forecast has rain all wee...

Re: FEEDBACK NEEDED ASAP
So 2 weeks after the state track meet that i didn't make, i competed in the state decathlon for one more chance at a PR vault. Turns out, 12' happened! My season feels much more accomplished now! the jump was on a 13'6 130 pacer mystic. No footage sadly!!

Re: FEEDBACK NEEDED ASAP
Can't see where your feet are, but it looks like you're taking off about 2 feet under, and as a result you can't get the hands all the way up at the plant. That's about as constructive as the advice can get for "short term" help. Good luck at sectionals tomorrow. Thanks a lot for the feed...

Re: FEEDBACK NEEDED ASAP
