i find myself guilty also when driving along and reading highway/road/bridge clearance signs and thinking that i can vault that or i hope to vault that lol.

you might be obsessed also when you're bored in classes and day dream about vaulting or begin to draw pictures or yourself vaulting.

I have that beat. This isn't something too be proud of i don't think but anyways... When I would get bored this last year in my Calc. class I would sit there and work on a pole vaulting progression flip book that I had started in my notebook.

I still haven't finished the dang thing. lol

when you're skilled at using your fingers to represent legs when explaining form at length to your non-vaulter friends

when you start getting gitty and really excited and smiley when you start talking about PV...or you get gitty reading this site :D

you're willing to donate money to your alma mater...but only in the form of PV equipment

For those of you who are gymnasts...when you are about to run down the vault runway and instead of starting with your feet together you step back and start running like you are going to plant a pole and jump rather than hit the springboard...I find myself doing that all the time!

When you bust your head open and have to get 5 staples in it and bruise some ribs from vaulting, and then vault 4 days later!!!

and def the bridge height sign
