Dale. AKA mrpolevault. He was a good one. University of Delaware vaulter if I remember correctly. Coached by the Micronesian national recordholder.
I'm sure he's a lurker on this site.

Me and my coach figured out a good way to keep from buying new poles. Just take a pole bigger than you need (if no one is using it of course) and sand down the soft side a little bit. Use a circular sander and you can fade in the work with the rest of the pole nice and smooth! it makes the pole waaaay softer and easier to vault on! it takes a little bit of practice to figure out how much to sand off but we figure for each sanding run down the pole knocks off 4 lbs of stiffness.
It works great if you can't afford new poles!

I tried it and it doesn't work.
I took a 10lb weight and stuck it on the end of the pole.
Since the hole was bigger than my pole, I wrapped the top of it in duck tape until the weight fit pretty snug.
10lbs never felt so heavy!
First 2 times down the runwy the extra weight made me miss the box and I planted my pole against the mat. It was not good.
3rd time I was able to get up but not knock the weight off. Didn't quite make the pit.
Then my coach had a good idea of tying a line to the weight so that somebody could jerk the weight off for you at the right moment. But coach didn't pull hard enough and the weight scraped the top of my head. nearly knocked me silly.
So today we're going to rig up a pole to hold the line up high so that the weight will come off the top of the pole above my head so i don't get hit again.
hopefully I'll have success at it today!
Wish me luck!

My coach is considered to be one of the finest vaulting coaches in the world. He was the head track coach for Micronesia back in the '68 Olympics.
Here's our secrets of my success
1. Distance = speed. Get a long run, like 24-30 steps.
2. Takeoff 1 foot under. My coach calls it "prebending" the pole prior to takeoff. Load it up!
3. Double-leg swing. Try it on a high bar. You swing faster and harder with the legs together.
4. Slide bottom hand. When inverted, slide your bottom hand up to your top hand. It's easier to push off with your hands together than far apart.
5. Standards at 3" or closer. You don't want to lose valuable inches in height going horizontally!
6. Rocket Poles!
They've helped me to the following accomplishments
America East Indoor Conference Champion 1999
UofDelaware Freshman record

I jumped 10'2" this weekend. I think that may be a qualifier for NCAA's. I'm not sure though.
I jumped it on my new 12'/120 Rocket. Man those are GOOD poles! Coach made me move back to my
26 step approach so I'd have enough speed since my grip was waaaaaaaaay up there. My mom was
calling me Rocket Man after that performance. Then we went to the Sizzler.
My coach is thinking of sending me to the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs this
summer. Does anybody know if they've got good facilities?

He saw my posts on this board and thinks I have

my poles up to the front of the line so they will
get made tommorrow. He said I should get them by
Tuesday or Wendesday.
Does anybody else out there have laerton poles?
are they as good as Rockets?

my coach says i'm too talented just to pole vault. So he suggested that i try the decathlon. yesterday i tried the high jump and went 4'4". I also timed the 100m and hit 14.2 seconds. Add that to my 9'6" vault PR and my 23.13 110H times and i think I've got a real shot at the NCAA record! What is the NCAA record anway? 2500 points or so?
Wish me luck!

I just tried the weight events today.
I threw the javelin 64' and the shot 19'. I didn't measure my discus throw.
I can't wait to get my first decathlon out of the way in 2 weeks. It oughta be pretty easy getting my NCAA qualifier. Hopefully I'll get a vault qualifier at the same time!

I already attend a NCAA DI school - the University of Delaware on a track scholarship. I was the Indoor America East Conference Champ with a PR 9'6"!!! and I promise you I will be the outdoor champ in both the pole vault and decathlon!
My goals for the outdoor season are a school record 11'2" in the vault and at least one NCAA berth, maybe 2 depending on how well I do in the decathlon. As soon as coach orders my 12' Rockets I know I can get that record.
See you at NCAA's!

I'm back at U of Delaware. I had to do my Mormon mission. Didn't do the usual two years. Caught a bad case of dissentary and they sent me home, but it was for the best. I'm back in training, Mr. Tully watch out! I'm after YOUR AMERICAN RECORD!!! I'm making the big switch from Rockets to BIG STICKS! The PURPLE PEOPLE EATERS!!! YEAH! Been jumping from my short run of 18 steps since I got back 3 weeks ago. I'll be there come next season, don't you worry. Mr pole vault will be the America East Conference Champion, and I will break that human ultimate barrier of 14 feet! I know an improvement of 3 1/2 feet would be amazing, but I"M MR POLE VAULT! I learned a lot about nutrition from the Venezuelans. I'm suprised they don't wint he olympics every year. Those people are in really good shape. Nice and lean. They know how to diet.
Wow I missed so much in the past year. Anybody heard that new song Livin' La Vida Loca? It's hot. Reminds me of the hot summer nights in the heathen village outside of Caracas, Venzuela with my senorita Adela, ahh Adela...she stole my heart.
Well, i'll talk to you guys later! Feel free to write!

Why oh why did he choose Delaware of all schools to say he was from....
UD is actually a really good school. Beautiful campus and nice facilities. Their track team isnt all that but unlike alot of the other large schools - they offer almost no track scholarships at all.

(And for those of you who took any of the posts seriously.... THAT scares me
