8'6"... I'm a little embarrassed to say it, haha. This is my first season vaulting though, I've got another season before I'm out of HS. I'm still having trouble getting inverted, blegh.

haha amen adam i have been juming on some decent sticks from 6 lefts but wait till i get me a big run and the ZEBRA then we will see something BIG!! haha just wait for it it will click but untill then you have to move outa the 4 left comfort zone and go for maby 5 or 6 lefts! trust me it works you just have to get your balls back and go for it. i jumped into the wind the other day and crushed my carbons from 6 lefts i am sure you could pull out something if you just man up and go for it :P haha
