How about NO Weather - aka indoors :P

Thats what I like the best. (although vaulting outside on a nice warm day with a slight trail wind IS a blast)

i think i perform better in weather that is not too cool or too hot, but just right - about 68-84 degrees; with a slight tail and side wind. But that is just me!

Ahhhhhh - gotcha.
Still though - he said 66 and sweating - thats nuts lol.
Its been in the 100's lately over here in Iraq.
Last summer I was in Doha, Qatar and it was like 130 degrees with 90 percent humidity.... TERRIBLE. I have no idea how people even compete in that country.
