PVJunkie called me about this - and in the closing credits they showed another PV jump - looked like square crossbare ends! Maybe it was just an optical thing

[OAKPV2004]

The crossbar and pegs were legit. I taped it and looked again...when hartwig goes over i could see the rounded ege and when he hits it, it gets rolled over so you can see the flat side, may have caused some confusion. I saw someone (LoJo?) do a pop up when they were showing the final results of the top 3.

[njvaulter]

Is their anywhere I can see the videos of them vaultingI missed it on tv today.

[mcminkz05]

yeah me too.

[wayupthere]

ya i really wanna see em. cuz guys like me who were glued to the computer and missed it and only got 2 see the mens 200 M once told about it

[smokinvaulter1]

I agree with Gus sure would of liked to see someone Clear 19', seems like a very low height for World Championship year, the condition might not been perfect but usually someone clears 19', wonder what won some others nationals?

[wayupthere]

why did Lo Jo start so high? Was he feelin confident or has recently cleared some big heights in practice?

[zack]

He has a broken hand and probably figured he might only be able to clear one height so he started at something that would probably put him on the team.

[vaultguru6]

LoJo looked horrible. I think he started high cause he just wanted to throw it all on the line in a gamble. An all or nothing type of thing. He wouldn't have cleared at any height though.....he was coming up way short on every jump. He looked like a guy who hasn't jumped in a competition in a year and was trying to jump with a broken hand.

[Decamouse]

Someone who has it taped - please check - did they say Hartwig and Derek started at 18-8? - it is clear that they started lower and passed - I was curious - didn't have vcr on - da --- with the stellar coverage you would never have know about the passing game or guys taking shoots at 18-10 trying to get into top three! Lets not even mention the Deca -

[KYLE ELLIS]

I dont have it taped but Im pretty sure they said Hartwig opened at 18-8 but I think they said it was Miles first attempt at the height.
