Underrated tool:

Clamps that you can use as a bar putter-upper by attaching them to the end of your pole. I don't know who came up with it first, but I learned it from Davie Johnston. Knowing Davie, it's possible that he thought of it first.

Would it be a safe assumption that Dave Johnston has thought of about 80% of everything to do with the vault? seriously. Anytime you think you've got an original idea, Dave had it in the 70s.

It'd be pretty sweet to have one that could work with your push off. That be pretty much a huge one. Just think.. tim mack could get like a 9 foot push off
Just you wait...

I highly recommend Becca's Pole Vault Training Log as a great present or stocking stuffer for pole vaulters at any skill level. As usual, Becca put a lot of thought into the design and the packaging of the product.
