Question, I weigh about 115 and I am using a 140 pole. The pole seems light enough to me, but I can't bend it on an actual vault. I was wondering if the pole weight limit made a difference and if it would help to use a different pole?

I've seen u jump, and i think you should worry about bend later (not tryin to be rude). Just get a fluid run and a strong take off and have fun. Have Dom teach u some things, or go to some clinics around here. I dunno if McDonough will have another clinic this year, but more jumps the better
