so at the indoor state meet i tied my own record by jumping 15 6...i had the worst warm up ever and didnt even take off the ground once so i had to come in at 13 6 so i could atleast fall over it so i could win my small school state title the video is at http://media.putfile.com/corey-shank-indoor-state

15'6'' for a freshman is pretty darn good. I'm a freshman and my best is 11'. When did you start jumping?

like how the subject title you referred yourself in the 3rd person lol i thought it was nifty haha.

after the 13'6" the "umm.... ya" kinda brought out a chuckle... keep it up kid.

haha, yeah i agree about the little "um..ya" in the video. pretty sweet. im just curious, i know you said you came in low to get a height cuz of bad warmups (ive done that before) but did you win after the first height? and if you did how come you still only went up by 6 inches... or instead go to like 15'9'' after 15 instead of 15'6''... just for the sake of breaking YOUR OWN natl. record haha. maybe its just me but i like seeing records be broken... anyway, good luck and keep it up

well what it was was the state meet...i won my small school group but the big school had 3 16 footers so they still wanted to stay normal and go 6 inches.... after i went 15 6 i did go 15 9 but was so tired i landed in the box 3 straight times
