Pole Vault Project

I am working on a survey of the mechanical concepts and teaching views of top level, college, high school, and club vault coaches. I am starting with a survey. Please email me if you would like to fill out a WORD template file and I will email it to you and you can respond and email the file back. It takes from 10-20 minutes depending on detail you wish to put. Let me know the level of athletes you mainly coach (two surveys going out - one for top level & collegiate coaches; one for high school/youth coaches). Thanks in advance,

Richie Mercado

DJ's Diagrams - the 6.20m Vault!

dj asked me to post this here. I am working on this project with pole vault coaching, teaching, mechanical concepts, etc. I have a site up just recently with some basic info on the project and links to the surveys.

It also contains links to dj's diagrams of model vaults, his 6 stride mark and acceleration charts, and an article I wrote based on developing an approach off of the 6 stride concept.

Here is the link. Becca, I linked your site to it; hope you don't mind!
