I am 15, going to be a Junior in High School. I am 5'3, 112 lbs. I can run pretty fast. I am at the end of my 120 12, UCS.

Re: female vaulter! needing help getting vertical, and shooting!

No, sorry I didn't mean to make it sound like I am just trying to speed vault. I meant to say that I most likely need an 8 step because when I am healed, it takes me 8 steps to get up to speed. I am striding out in these videos mainly because of my hurting foot. When I am totally healthy I can run a...

Re: Good Warm-up jumps

Hello! I am only a girl vaulter, but I just wanted to say your amazing, and my hero! I have a lot of guys on my team, and my coaches all vaulted, but just from quickly looking at the video, I'd say you need to be more comfortable with staying upside and with the pole. You seemed a bit under and I th...

Re: female vaulter! needing help getting vertical, and shooting!

Thanks for the replies. I first do a lot of short approach just doing rock-back and holding lower on the pole. I can do a nearly professional rock-back, on a stiff pole and get my hips up and shoulders back. I just have a hard time driving and swinging quickly to get my weight on the back of the pol...

recenetly started bending, hard times getting vertical

I am a sophomore, I live in Montana, and I am on a 120 11'6 pole. My coach is telling me I need to focus on holding the left arm out a bit longer, and drive more. That I understand, and can work on it. Also he is telling me I need to be able to get to position 1 (right hand to crotch, left hand near...
