4th of July vaulting!

Unread postby KYLE ELLIS » Wed Jul 02, 2003 11:32 pm

Since I am a loser, and hate partying, usually me and a couple of my friends go out at night when fireworks just set off and vault. We depend on the fire works to light up the pit/box. Its really a blast! If yall are like me and dont have anything better to do!

Or how about going to the Beach Vault on Ruston Way in Tacoma, WA. Of course I think Indiana's a little far.

someone was shooting fireworks over me while I was doing plant drills. I got a pit in a hay field, and for some reason I didn't expect to duck fireworks at 11 PM hitting the plant box?!? oh well
