I stopped dreaming big a LONG time ago. A (single) bigger stick has been on my past 3 christmas lists.....I'm not even going to try it again this year :(

I also forgot about the being healthy enough to jump at our first meet February. That's an important one too!

Becca, are you trying to get a "Purchase This for Your Pole Vaulter" list together?

If so (some recommendations):
*Beginner to Bubka
*C'mon (NeoVault DVD)
*Bring It (NeoVault DVD)
*A Pole Vaulter's Dream (DVD)
*Summit Registration and Hotel/Air Accomodations :P
*Annual Subscription to NeoVault
*Nike PV Lites (or TJ/PV...I have both and I still can't decide which one I prefer)
*spandex! (haha...the most overlooked item of pole vault wear for beginners)

a box of 72 rolls of athletic tape for taping poles and some totally new cool sweats. I also asked for a new set of poles and vault spikes for indoor...

Yeah. I'd prefer if you guys listed tangible things that Santa can bring as opposed to goals you have.

...and we're in California where it doesn't snow (in the valley at least).

I wonder how those Northerners do it. :dazed:
