i'm not quite 100% sure on this but i think the
intermediate series only come in like 150 and 170
weights and they are more flexible for training
and teaching people how to vault. i actually jumped
on an inter. 150 last year because it was basically
my only option. this year i baught a 13' rocket 135
and i love it. best pole i have ever jumped on. i would
say/think a regular rocket is more beneficial to a HS
vaulter, unless you're just learning...

I would imagine it is much like the difference between Skypole and Skypole E-Z Plant.
