Unread postby fong520 » Fri Feb 17, 2006 6:18 pm

so when i jump usually i stare at the bar and i pretty much lock my bottom arm and just sit and pull up on it to clear a bar. lately ive been getting up though, only problem is that i throw my head back..
so my question is. when u guys vault, what do u do with ur head?.
i run, therefore im buff.

I try and look at my bottom hand just to keep from throwing my head back
