yeah, it was 13'7 on the third attempt!
really excited!!!
The group of boys before us ripped up part of the runway so they turned us around to go in the other direction and we had to fight a slight headwind, but we all fought through it and had a great time!!!
my avatar pic is the 13' 7" jump now!!!
later

Sick. You're gonna give lots of girl vaulters some serious competition. From here you can only get better.

Hey Shade...

What are the specs on that pole? 13-6? How much over your body weight was it, where was your takeoff, etc. Just curious! Great jump and Congrats!!
