When changing poles, no matter what size it is, you generally always keep the same grip that you had on the previous pole, and inch it up as you feel comfortable. When you move your grip up a foot, you will always have problems getting into the pit. You're lucky you haven't been rejected back onto the runway! Drop your grip a foot and see if that helps!
