The whole story has to do with Alan Launder giving Angie her first PV lessons at South Carolina PV camp. Then bringing her to Boone NC to demonstrate at my coaches clinic and to Appalachian State PV camp. Aslo Alan taking her to the Duke PV camp (I drove). Alan essentially took her from complete beginner (never touched a pole) to roughly 11'+ in 3 weeks of camps she attended that Alan was working. That is the short hand version.

I watched Angie jump for the first time today and she looked awesome. Today wasn't a pr kind of meet but she still was miles ahead of anyone. She has great technique and shes pretty fast. Great combination :yes:
