Hey! I was wondering what kind of spikes everyone uses to vault in and what they recommend. I'm looking to buy some new ones and I would like some advice. Thanks!

1/4 inch pyramids are pretty much the standard and excepted everywhere... some places may require 3/16 as max (I used these all through high school and liked them because they are a lot sharmper than the 1/4, just wear down a little faster).

But there are plenty of post on this toppic in other forums, try searching the equipment thread.
