okay, i've heard a few people say on here that they have left-handed poles...now, i always thought a pole was a pole, that it didn't make a diff which hand you vaulted with...is there really such a things as a left-handed pole? i've been wondering about that for a bit now, as nobody commented to these ppl that there wasn't a diff...anybody care to enlighten me?

yes, a pole is a pole. brandon (lefty) and chris (evil righty) used the same poles over the season, there's no reson a left handed vaulter can't use the same one a right handed vaulter does
