Big clap, Toby has a great first attempt at 5.85, he is over it but tucks his knees in again and knocks it off.

Jeremy Scott has a very good attempt at 5.85! So close. (a miss)

Miles bails, so the positions remain the same.

Except for Miles, they all had VERY GOOD attempts at 5.85

Brad Walker up again. Remember his run is only 6 lefts, almost half the length of most everyone else.

His second attempt is solid but a bit short.

Another great attempt for Toby, but he kicks it off on the way up.

A VERY CLOSE attempt for Jeremy Scott! But a miss :(

It looks like Brad is calling it a day, the spikes are off and the sneakers back on. I think Toby is calling it a day too.

Jeremy Scott ALMOST had it on his third!! The bar stayed for a second and then fell.

He's definitely ready to jump 5.80+ outdoors.

Derek Miles final attempt... a decent attempt but he snags the bar on the way down and the competition is over.
