Thats ok, im just wondering who the top returning kids will be next year. But thats a whole separate post for a little later. And just wondering, based on that picture, do you know what pole he was on? Looks like its pretty long considering the bar is at 17'6.25.

Realllyy.... thats interesting. Haha i hate how a german comes here, woops up on all the juniors, and leaves us with our tails between our legs :(. But hes a great jumper and i wish him the best in the future, regardless of whether he goes to Nike.

FYI, he was on a 16-foot 200 lb. pole and only weighs around 170 lbs. It was a 15.0 flex UCS pole. I think he was gripping right around 15-8 to 15-9. Amazing take-off with great acceleration through the plant.
