Can't keep legs together

Unread postby dakota_vaulter » Tue May 20, 2003 12:07 pm

Hey there,
I have trouble with my legs. I can't keep them together. So I hit the bar on the way down. I am in the 8th grade and can vault 8ft. I qualified for state in vaulting. But I feel I can't get over the hight of 8ft. I weigh 102 and use the 100lb. pole. I hold at the top of the pole. But i don't know how long it is. Usually my steps are in and it's harder than heck to get up.

No in South Dakota we do not have junior high state meets. I made it in the varsity division.
