give me some feedback

classic example of why you should never pull on your top hand.

also. you should really work on your run rhythem. your cadence doesn't really increase. the first steps should be more open with good high knees and then increase the tempo as you get closer to the box.

finally. work on being really tall throughout the take off. stretch that top arm high and extend all the way through a long left leg

good luck !!!

you don't need to take 5 back/forward steps before starting your run. just pick it up, take a good backstep and get on with it... should clean your run up a little too. also... he's right.... that's why you don't pull on the pole....

Looks to me like the pole broke into two pieces. If that's the case it was probably a scratch or ding in the pole, but your flat takeoff didn't help any.

Brian and Jeff are right about your run, open your stride up and pick up your knees a little more. Also, stay patient on your swing. I don't know how to put it other than your not finishing the swing, so you're not fully rocking back (i hate the term "rock back"). By maintaining your swing a little longer, the pole will continue to move, you hips will be in a higher position, and you make that by over a foot rather tahn coming down on it.

yea i was pulling on it because my step was alittel inside. Yea i fixed that begining part a little while ago i dont do all those unessary steps ne more. the pole broke into 4 pieces not 2. thanks
