No.........been there done that (in even less)........no cowboy boots............they hurt my toes..............


To start a thread from another board from a long time ago........whats the highest you have ever vaulted..........uuummmm..........in your birthday suit (spikes are allowed but nothing else). Not that I am encouraging this behavior but if you have done it............how high did you jump.



................5.00 (16'5").........

Haha I made this a new thread :P

I straight poled over a... maybe 10 foot bungee at the jock jump at UF 2 years ago, in my underwear. :o

I wouldn't be surprised if there is an unofficial list of naked building records out in Jonesboro :P

Back in the days of the Big 8.....(sounds so much better than 12)....there was pretty stiff competition between schools as to who had the highest "nekkie" school record. Best I can remember the conference best went to another wookie from Kansas, but one guy did hold the record for two different schools. Any guesses?

So far, I believe the "official" naked world record is only 16'4.5 by Borya Calenteno. Sparks was also behind this one as well. Apparently it was a certified meet with officials at UC irvine. How about the drunk vault (DISCLAIMER) record? Any of yall try this one?

DRINKING AND JUMPING IS A BAD IDEA. IT SHOULD NOT BE TRIED BY ANYONE.

threw a roller over 5.00 after some consumption....................on downhill boards if that makes a difference.

read the discalaimer!!!!

THIS IS NOT A GOOD IDEA.........IN FACT DOING ANYTHING THAT INVOLVES SPEED OR DANGER IS A BAD IDEA AFTER ANY CONSUMPTION.

can't say i've ever vaulted in the buff, but we used to have a Scottish Games every year the week before Big Tens. One event was the vault for distance. everyone had to run from less than 50' and all use the same pole. I won both years and landed half on/half off the back of our mats, which are really freakin deep. i'd guess about 7m behind the box at least.

kilts + beer + no underwear = good times (not in that way you perv) ;)

does the "anatomy" flop and move around too much. is tape or some sort of support allowed for these 'official' jumps?
