Vault Spikes

Where can you get the Pole Vault spikes that Tommy Skipper is wearing during the US Championships? If you go to trackshark.com and look up the 2005 US Championships and click page 13 he has them on. I can never find them. Just wondering.

If they're the same ones he wore the year before, I believe those are just the Nike TJ/PV spikes but 3 models ago...before the red/black and before the white/black/orange...

I got a pair from First to the Finish. Dev is right, they are just an older model of the Nike jump spikes.

You can see what FtF has in stock in that model of spikes on their website. A few sizes left (it's a pretty old model). They don't list the price, but I think they sold me my pair for around $20, 2 years ago.

Those are the old Nike LJ spkies from 1997. I still have a pair of the TJ/PV spikes from then (all black, white swoosh, red spike plate)

I like those spikes, but the subsequent models made after that were much lighter, so I'd reommend getting a newer model spike than those. I'm sure you can get the white/orange/black TJ/PV spikes pretty cheap these days...
