Thats a real tuff one, but in my eyes Toby was the catalyst for US mens vaulting. but the womens world record is a close second.

womens world record is amzing....but how many flippin times did it happen this year? Toby's 6 meter jump is more rare than a womens world record these days. U.S. men taking 1 and 2 at the Olympics deffinently ranks up there too. Mack!!!!! Most people get older with time....?

How many 6m jumps have been made on short pegs? Answer that and you'll figure out my vote.

well, I almost voted Toby, but he's not the first to break that 6 meter barrier. I voted for Feofanova's breaking the 16 foot barrier
sad to say

Sad to say the broken pole got more media attention than the 16' world record.
But I wanted to vote for all of them
but had felt that both USA vaulters placing in the Olympics as the highlights
so I just voted for Tim Mack and Toby

I forgot to add Chelsea being the first college female over 15' (4.57). That would have been a great one to have added to it.
Sorry Chelsea.

All of those are great performances, but I think we're all just partial to Toby because he's is so freakin cool.
YES Chelsea was another great highlight

even though Tim Mack is my Idle and him wining the olympics with a new pr and olympic record was the coolest thing of the year for me. I think toby clearing 6m was the coolest thing for the vaulting community
