OK here is the rundown on what the pole vaulters are wearing...

Jeng - Orange Nike singlet with long grey tights.
Pauli - Last year's Nike sleeveless speedsuit
Mack - Last year's nike singlet and short shorts.
Scott - His blue Bell Athletics muscle tee and long tights.
Gio - Green Mexico uniform
Sawano - Orange Nike Speedsuit with short sleeves
Miles - Orange Nike singlet with the grey short shorts.





Pauli has the height on his second attempt but hits it pretty hard. It looked like it might stay but it didn't.
Mack just brushes it off on the way up.
Scott knocks it off on the way up and just about rolls into the box on the other side (in other words he was really deep)

Right before Lanaro started his run, the clouds broke, the sun came out, and the wind sock is not doing anything.

But he still missed.

Scott puts together a great jump too! Tons of height over the bar and makes it clean.
