Question of too much bend???

So i'm a 14 foot vaulter, but compared to most of my fellow 14 foot vaulters that i know, i bend the pole a lot more. Here are a couple videos showing that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HriMSJzCffo&feature=channel&list=UL and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWw1hM3rSEk&feature=relmfu Wh...

Pull-Turn help??!

Re: Getting onto bigger pole?

hye The next pole would "logically" be a 14-7 Spirit... 160lb.. Evident on the video is you are "muscling" the pole.. trying to vault with brute strength instead of technique... that would be a product of your run and of how you are learning to vault. the Approach Run is key to ...

Re: State Qualifying jump...want to go higher!

Hey guys! Got a new PR the other day, 14 feet! Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWw1hM3rSEk

This one is on a pole 5 pounds stiffer, as i blew through that other pole in my first vault that day, this one gave me such a push! I was actually surprised how much work the pole did for me.
