good morning

anyone think her Six Stride Mark was to far out.. and that she was "reaching" a little?? to me that is what "changed' the way she normally goes over the bar and the lack of penetration...

roman or allan.. any chance one of you could ask petrov or someone at the meets to give us that info, where her 6 step form takeoff is?, i would be interested to know how it matches up to the grip and how she runs at the various meets..

DJ I think you're right! She did look a bit "stridey" in the last two steps. That being said, I think this is actually the closest I've seen Isi to looking like Bubka. maybe it's just the camera angle, but I think that aside from a possible run-length issue, Isi looked better than ever on this day!
