I remember UNC Chapel Hill having a decent vaulting crew back in early 90s with Coach Dennis Craddock. They had about 4-5 vaulters over 18' - one of them I knew was a walk-on who only heighted 12-6 in HS near me and then progressed to 18'+ by their Jr college years. And I'm sure their track facilit...

While being recruited one coach told me some good information, never go to a school because of a coach, because there is a chance that that coach could leave. This has happened to my friends at other universities. I look at academics since I goto clemson (major engineering school). Program quality i...

I'm working on the same thing. I've analyzed my video and saw that I'm not swinging my trail leg and it is not staying straight until it is perpindicular to the box. I'm gonna try straightening my trail leg and swing it harder to get more momentum in my swing.

Thanks
I'm 6' 2". At camp I was jumping a little over half a foot over my grip jumping 13' 11" holding at 13' 4." I might be able to jump my grip on a bigger pole if I had a pole I wouldn't blow through. I might try moving my hand down to make it a little stiffer, I'll see how that works.

Mad
Man I'd be mad if someone threw a hammer at me while I was jumping. It was in South Africa, I hear they have some good vaulters.

My Pole
I named one of those black 12' training poles Bob Marley. I named another one of those poles Widow Maker because a friend of mine busted his arm on the cement (breaking it) trying to jump on that pole. My 13' in the 10th grade, I named instant 12' because my PR was 10' 6" and when I jumped on the po...
