bending the pole

I'm having tons of trouble pushing my bottom arm out when i jump, i usually bring it in right away so im getting absolutley no bend at all. It seems impossible for me to push though, does anyone have any advise on how to fix this problem?

Ive been vaulting for two years and i still feel like im starting out, but going back to the begining is probably the best thing. Whenever i go back and focus on the very basics that i first learned when i started, like basic rope work for your trail leg and pole run after pole run, it always helps....

"My jump was imperfect, my run-in was too short and my hands were too far back at takeoff. When I manage to iron out these faults, I am sure I can improve." -Sergei Bubka
