The first attempt at 16'6" was on a light 16' 180lbs standards at 80cm. The jump at 17'7" was on a stiffer flex 16' 185lbs standards at 45cm. That is why he was so much higher.

Scotty --> senior
Jordan --> senior
Spencer --> junior

I only saw one jump where he was close, but I heard from someone that when Chuck Norris vaults, he doesnt use a pit. The ground turns soft for him. I think Scott was using that same idea ;)
Just you wait...

When I watch him from behind, I notice that his left trail leg will cross his chest and appear over his right shoulder. He is working on trying to keep his hips a bit more square. I am hoping this will correct the problem. Any other thoughts? All help is welcome
