I'm a volunteer coach, I've been away from the sport for almost 10 years but I'm ready to give back.
Coaching at a HS in Las Vegas, NV
I fly free and can travel to pick up poles.
Please let me know if you have any poles suitable for high school students.
Thanks,
Jennifer

Re: Starting New Program/HS-NEED POLES!!
HI Jennifer,
Most poles that are not really long would be suitable for high school jumpers. You might have short, tall, fast, slow, heavy, light, experience, and beginner vaulters. So, I feel that any pole that is solid, could be appropriate for some high school kid. It is good to have a variety of poles to match the variety of kids you will be coaching. I used to coach high school track and field for 5 years, so I am speaking from experience. Anyway, I have 6 poles that I have listed on this web site under the post titled, " A Variety of Pole Vaulting Poles for Sale". These poles are older, from the early 1990s. They are all safe, solid, and functional, but they just do not have the pretty tape and flashy colors poles today have.
I will sell them all for $250. I am 47 and I do not jump that much anymore. I will list them again for you in my reply.
14' 9" 160 Altius (Original length)
15' 3" 160 Altius (Original length)
15' 150 Cata-Pole (Original length)
15' 170 UCS/Spirit ( 3 inches cut off the bottom. Original flex # 18.0)
15' 9" 170 Pacer 3 ( 11 inches cut off the bottom. Original flex # 21.0)
15' 160 Cata-Pole ( 11 inches cut off the bottom. Unknown original flex#)
I can throw in x 2 free cross bars. My contact number is (713) 984-0805. My email is: bryanruwaldt@gmail.com

Re: Starting New Program/HS-NEED POLES!!
Hi I am posting a sale on this site today but needs to be approved. I have 5 poles that are perfect for HS Pacer 13 135 $250, and 4 carbon pacers that I bought new last year. 13' 140, 145 ($325 each) 13'6" 135 and 140 ($360 each) Im in Lubbock and can get to an airport. Please let me know - Brit 806 438 4504 Westtexaswind on this site. I am actively trying to get these sold. Had a sale with a school here and the administration blew it so I would prefer dealing with an individual and cash.
