Good idea on the pole actually getting strait. Like I've vaulted on poles that are so soft I barly feel them to poles that make my shoulders hurt. The soft poles are easier on me but worse for my vault. I use an Essx right now and I like it. Before I used a skypole. I really think a scientific test ...
