I thought this was a pretty cool video. I love watching kids improve.

Wow, DannyBoy, that's a great vid of your progress! :yes:

Third at state! Nice! :yes:

I'd like to know more about you. Please tell us what state you're in, and a bit more about yourself. Your name, your school, your coach, your grade, your height, weight, grip, pole weight, dates of each milestone cleared, etc. If I was in your area, I would truly like to shake your hand! Not only nice progress in your vaulting, but also a very nice chronology of your technique. CONGRATULATIONS! :yes:

FIVE FEET is a great improvement for a SIX MONTH period! :yes: If I didn't see the vid, I wouldn't have believed it!

If Danny's not on PVP, I wouldn't think it would be too hard to track him down. Those mountains tell me it's either Colorado or Utah ... or some other state very close to the Rockies. Judging by the direction of your shadow, I'm guessing that you're on the East side of the Rockies, so I'm guessing Colorado. Good guess? :confused:

You want to know what City and State, look at the last vault. In the back ground on the mountians is a "Y". That is from BYU. He is in Provo Utah. That is where Utah holds their State Meet.

That was truly great, thank you very much for the video. I jumped 9'6"-10' as a sophmore and my high school goal is 12' (11' this year). I didn't know if it was possible, but with that video, I know I can accomplish it if I keep up my hard work.

Also provides great material to study! :P

Thanks again,
A.J.

Yea bud don't stop at 14'! You got the attitude to jump as high as you want, truly. No doubt you could get 15' with some tweaks, and with the right attitude and the right coach, way more than that! Great job.
The greater the challenge, the more glorious the triumph
