World Championships - pole brands

Unread postby miniwhinny » Tue Aug 18, 2009 4:05 pm

I was just wondering out of interest did anyone notice what poles (brands/types) were being used by the various World Championship vaulters?

I called Steve Rippon to congratulate him on Kate's great performance and he told me that there were 6 women vaulting on Pacer carbons in the final. I'm not sure if anyone was on Nordic or Essex poles, but probably most of the other 6 were on Spirit poles. So Gold and Silver on Pacer carbons and the other silver on Spirit.
