Is there a website or somewhere to find the information? I can't seem to open the link from what you shared in the original post.

Thank you, and best of luck hosting the event.

Good Afternoon,

Looking to re-wrap a few of our poles. Where do other vaulters/ coaches purchase their wraps/ vinyl from?

Many thanks!

Hey gabsterpv! I am guessing you are a right handed vaulter and by "left arm" you mean your bottom arm? Posting a video of a few of your vaults will help determine what the issue might be. You mention that you have a good take off and both arms are extended? Do they continue to stay extend...

First, I agree 110% with Kirk on standards. Our program has our standards "frozen" on 80 for practice and most meets (weather/ wind depending). I see to many coaches try cheating with standard placement due to poor technique of the vaulter - and increasing the chances of injury. :dazed: Se...

Its not just a simple process of counting (I don't believe in counting up or down in #'s however in phases) but how to count and the reason why. - for a future to...

Both gents bring up excellent points above..... one simple question that hasn't been asked is, do you count your steps during your approach run? From the videos, it doesn't look like you start to drop the pole consistently at the same spot. The pole drop tempo should increase as your approach run in...
