I've jumped there a couple times.. Each time I jumped well. Solid runway, usually a pretty kickin tail wind, and the pits are huge....

Theres a meet on July 16-17 there. "The mid-summer" classic... Theres usually a few real good athletes that show up at APU, so it should be a fun meet.

Great place to jump! Wind is almost always tail.

The facility isn't all that bad. Runway is decent, but the pits suck. You should check with Beam...he just retired his coaching position there.

Eww, you know what's a sucky place to vault? Bainbridge Island High school. The standards are way to close and the mats are really small and last time I was there they had to use a rope for a cross bar. It was awful. I refuse to vault there because I don't want to die. any who.
