spirit poles are usually a softer bend then most

Re: Purchasing new poles
If you are a normal Pole vaulter, you are in the range of 5 9 - 6 3. weighing 149lbs, blowing through a 160. To have a reasonable pole to move up to, id say buy a 13 155 or 13 160, the get a 13 6 155 if you do not already have those.
