NIN bar progression

[nitro]

anyone know it? they change it up a little every year

[vault3rb0y]

Ive been thinking a lot about that too. Last year the progression was t0 have 4 inch increments to 17'5" for the meet record, but with 17'5"+ now being the meet record, and the national record only 2 inches away, im not sure if they will want someone to go for the national record (16'7, 16'11', 17'3, 17'7") or the meet record somewhere within 2 inches below that. Or they completely mess with it and do something totally random lol.

[AVC Coach]

My guess is that they will be working backwards from a potential meet record at 4 inch increments down to 16'1" or so and 6 inches before then. This is the first year to have a championship flight, so the opening height should be around 15ish.

i think that is kind of odd, but i guess they might change it there. Are all you guys ready!?

[nitro]

of course

[polevaulter08nw]

yeah man! im excited! excited to jump and excited to see all you guys again!

[vault3rb0y]

Yea scott its been forever man. And you know I'm ready .

[BethelPV]

It's a bummer that Nico wont be out there, that would be a fun competition with all you guys pushing each other over 5.35 or so!

[polevaulter08nw]

yeah, it would be better with him, but i think we will do just as well, its almost a strive to jump better cause hes not there i guess, i don't, all i know is that it will be fun and jason, corey joe and i all seem ready to jump!

[vault3rb0y]

I think there could be more 16+ers on the podium this year than last year. Hopefully more 17'ers too!

[Robvaulter]

corey what about schipper? he's not going?
