I just received this email from Bubba Mclean, one of the producers/camera man/director, ect, of Pole Vaulters Dream.

Hey Everyone,

I just wanted to let you all know that I have finally completed the pole vault documentary that I have been working on for the last two years. The name of the film is The Next Attempt. If you have some time, check out the web site http://www.thenextattempt.com/ This is a grassroots project, so if you know any pole vaulters or people who might be interested in buying a unique documentary, please send them to the web site, forward this email, or give them my contact information. Thank you so much for your support and have a great day.

Aloha,
Bubba McLean

I've already ordered mine. Can't wait!! Bubba

Me too!

I got mine today and already watched it. BEYOND outstanding!! GREAT video, story line and music. Very impressive! I'll watch it again tonight with my wife. Thanks for your efforts Bubba. EVERY vaulter needs this DVD! Bubba

Mine came today too! Went home for lunch and it was there. Put it in, and didn't make it back to work. Its awesome, I recommend it to anyone out there looking to be inspired, and get a unique insight into a post collegiate vaulters lifestyle.
I'll watch it again tonight for sure.

Oh yeah, and DON'T COPY IT!!! The guys that put out these videos produce them out of there own pockets to share something special with all of us. They don't have much money and need our support. We are very fortunate to have people like them out there taken countless hours out of there own lives to give us all such awesome videos. If you call yourself a vaulter, you are part of a big family..... copying this, would be like stabbing your brother in the back.

Got mine in the mail, popped it right in.

VERY VERY VERY COOL.

It definitely wasn't what I expected, but i LOVED IT.

it really puts into perspective the entire European aspect for american vaulters. When i went over 2 summers ago, I had no idea what i was getting into. It was really fun none the less but it was so hard just to do simple things, and even harder to vault. The weather is tough, and the pits are tiny... The atmosphere however, was amazing. And you get to see all of that here. Everyone needs to see this film!!!!!

Nice work BUBBA!

I just finished watching it, and I really enjoyed it. It has more of a plot than most pole vault videos, it's not just a bunch of random meets set to music (not that there's anything wrong with that, those are great too). It pretty much covers the summer of 2007, most European meets with USAs and World Champs thrown in. It gives you a good feel for what Europe is like. I'd love it if US street/beach vault directors watched it and got some idea of how big the street meets in Europe are, and what we should be shooting for

Aren't you one of those directors

Haha yeah, but at least I'd already been to one European street vault before this came out I always love to see more! Such great energy

Thanks everybody who has supported this film and for the great reviews. I promise i didnt pay them to say such great things. I was also wondering what you guys thought of the outtakes and the meditation reel in the special features. For those who havent had a chance to view the film, the additional footage has interview outtakes, and a meditation reel designed to give people access to world class pole vaulting without any strings attached.

Oh! I didn't realize until just now that there's TWO Bubbas!

And here I thought the OTHER Bubba was flogging his own vid!

I haven't watched the outtakes but, the meditation reel is sweet. Tons of great vaults to watch and learn from!!
