Whatever guys, I am not THAT cool. Sorry I didn't get to hang out with some of you more. Reno is always a crazy time for me.

i agree with adam. i think if i tried to do everything becca does, my head would explode- literally. and if that happened, it would make vaulting more difficult, so i'll just give praise and support where they be due :yes:.

I ended up jumping 14'7" (4.45m), but I think if i had the right poles i would have soared high! Well it's a start.

Although I used borrowed poles, I can't blame the poles. I simply didn't jump very well that night (10 ft.). A good night for me is 11' and okay is usually 10'6".

Reno was a great experience for me. This was my first time. But I didn't jump as well as I should have. I jump in masters and the way they grouped us for the competition was by height cleared in the past year. This puts a lot of different age groups together so other people in your age group could be jumping on another pit. Since they don't post the age of the masters competitors in the results (and I don't know all the names of masters in my age group) it is difficult to know how anyone did by age group. I wish they would fix that.
