I have a question. At NON, what dertermines when you compete? I dont understand this "seeding". There shows to be two different flights of vaulting. Do you have to qualify for the "Chamionship Flight" through another competition on Thursday or is this simaler to an "A" flight and "B" flight? Trying to make flight (airline) arangements. HELP PLEASE!

They take the top 14 to 16 jumpers according to pr and put them in the championship flight and the rest go to the other flight i have been told. There are no prelims.

Both flights use the same height increments. It's just to keep from having one overloaded flight. Jason Pelletier placed 4th overall last year coming from the "unseeded" flight. They finally did this with the girls last year and it helps.
