**BEWARE**

Unread postby LHSpolevault » Thu Jun 30, 2005 8:17 pm

Beware of Mr. Scary Rubber, a.k.a the bungie bar... he builds up your confidence too much! Just earlier I cleared Mr. Scary Rubber while he was chillen up at 14ft... and I tried 13ft with the normal bar and blew :-\ so...

Confidence is good though. If you don't think you can clear a height you won't. Besides now you know you can do it.

This is kinda off your subject, but once i tripped running down the runway, and got turned around so that i was sitting in the plant box. Then, i pulled my pole towards me and the bar fell and hit me right on the head. This was in an actual meet, and lucky for me, i have it on video!! :o
