Looking for big poles- 190 lb +

Unread postby BallardPV » Tue Apr 13, 2004 5:27 pm

My vaulter (13'-6" last year as a sophomore) is currently jumping on a 14'-6" 185, and am I looking for something bigger. I will soon need a 190, then a 195, etc... and probably longer as well. Please let me know if you have anything in this range to trade, donate, sell..... Thanks, Matt.

Yes I do coach at Ballard High School. Its a great school. It would be better if we could actually run and vault at the school though.
Thanks,
Matt

My school's got a 195 ..ucs (i think) that was barely used. They're dying to trade it for something like a..say 115 or 120.

I would definitely be up for a trade. Email me at cwgrizwald@aol.com and we can talk trade. Where are you located? I am in N. Seattle. We have a couple of poles in the range you are looking for.

At our meet today Ty blew through his 14' - 3", 200lb pole with the standards all the way back. He his holding right at the grip band at the top. Anyone have a 205 or bigger? He weighs a little more than 190lbs. On another note, he ran a 11.10 100 meter on Thursday for a new PR.
