Definitely going to switch because I usually death grip the pole with my right hand, hurts my wrist after awhile.

yea you feel safer when you run, but when you relax it, your whole run relaxes actually, and (i find) you can run a little faster and be more relaxed during your jump.
The greater the challenge, the more glorious the triumph

Been vaulting with an open top hand and my wrist doesn't hurt one bit.

Thanks.
