Just three jumps of mine at the last regular meet of the year, i have districts in a week and state in a week after that. All the info is in the video. I set a new personal best from 11'6" to 12'1" with a goal pr of 13'6" this year so any help would be appreciated http://www.youtube.c...

So at my first track meet this season the coach there let me borrow two 14' poles, a 155, and a 160. I was using a 12'6" pacer. today (at optional spring break practice) I was getting vertical but my ol faithful pole was mushing out so i decided since i was warmed up that i would see what i cou...
