Lately I've been using sticky spray. How the heck do you get it OFF your hands? :dazed:

Try rubbing alcohol....just keep a bottle in your bag for when you wash your hands afterwards!
That's Jodie!!

A scripture that makes me think of all you girls and guys pole vaulting....

Habakkuk 3:19
The Sovereign LORD is my strength;
he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
he enables me to go on the heights.

just stay away from the sticky addiction.........then you do not need to find the "fast orange" to get your vault off.............

i use oranges. first i get an orange, peel it, eat the orange, then rub the peels on my hand. not only do i get a tasty treat but i also get a good grip with my pole.

keep on using the sticky. It's awesome. Then use liquid tape remover, works like a charm
