i tried 4 different sports store and none of them had gym floor tape. chicks sporting goods said they could special order it for me, but itd take too long. big 5 didnt even know what i was talking about. sports authority...they need to get on the ball. and sports chalet had the tape on their website...

i started straight poling as soon as i started vaulting. so around 8-8'6". At my frist meet i starting bending my pole and got 9'6. so i cant really say i straight poled over a bar at a competition

ok cool. Im so gonna wrap up my new pole like this! thanks!

so we CAN wrap our poles in protective tape nearly all the way up top? There isnt a rule about doing that? My coach says i cant do that but im getting a new pole soon and i want to know if i can or cant. if i can then thats awesome!

What sucks the most is i have an invitational tomorrow, the back of my head is still bruised and i only have...

well the meet was at home. we dont have a big inventory of poles. I couldve tried the 13'7 130 pole but ive never jumped on it before and my head was hurting. I am a little mad that i didnt get to finish. Today was supposed to be the day i PR'd

The bottom of the pole flew up and whacked me in the back of the head. I had a big bump and was bleeding. I found out later that it w...

thats all really good advice. i try to visualize with some success. Muscle memory is also i thing im trying to get down. Sometimes what we do at practice is put the bar at the bottom and a bungee up top. Lets say the bungee is at 15 and the bar is at 11. We swing up to the 15 to try to kick it or cl...

if you can contact Dick pond athletics you can get older model jump spikes. i got the mizuno triple jump/ pole vault spike for $54 i think. and ive only seen one other person have it too.

whats the flex on the 13'3 140? and how much would shipping be to 92054

i gave this list to my coach and we may be making an order from you soon.
