The real deal.

Point #1: While all other elite's are scrapping for centimeters, Tommy's immidiate potential is a matter of multiple, multiple inches.
http://www.advantageathletics.com/polev ... ipper.html

Point #2: You didn't see him jumps at 5.83. Insane. So much hip height that he brought it off with his foot.

Point #3: Sac State. 4 years ago, if i'm not mistaken, it took 18'6" to go to the show. Why so low? B/c the winds suck. Last year I saw tommy blow up 18'3" in some of the nastiest side winds I've seen. Moral of this? Bad winds will only play into his hands.

Point #4: At regionals tom was on the biggest pole in his bag, and making everything with blow through makes, w/o the aid of a tailwind. He would have gone up at least one more pole at the next height. And you better believe he'll have 3 or 4 more poles in Sac town.
