Nadine O'Connor confirms that Charlie's jump was off a regulation runway, and not the raised runway they use.
The meet was USATF-sanctioned, so the record should go through.

I certainly appreciate and respect Becca's input, but my first thought was, "oh well, he's going to jump higher anyway." Bubba

I took a road trip from Charlotte to compete in San Diego with everyone at the Friday night vault competition. Charlie looked great clearing 4.35 by 3- 5 inches. On his jump he reminded of an older version of Bubka. The Friday night meets hosted by SDSU Assistant Coach Rich Fox are great. There are world class jumpers/coaches down to beginners with four pits. The officials do a great job putting running the event. If any vaulters/coaches get an opportunity to compete and/or watch I highly recommend it.
