Yep. I got mine on Southwest for $307.50 from Hartford. I think I'll borrow or rent poles. It's just one less thing to worry about.

Lonestar,

Thanks for the offer. If I'm "on", I'll use a 13-170 or 13-175. If I'm not "on", I'll need a 13-165. Of course any functional equivalents (like 14-150 or 14-155 will do fine). I'm gripping anywhere from 12'-12'6" and I weigh right at 170 lbs. right now. Of course I'll be jumping with the masters folks so perhaps there won't be too much conflict in terms of others who'll need your poles.

I look forward to seeing you again.
Russ

I should have a 1360, 13'650, 55, 60, 65, 1455,60,65

Also, I know another masters vaulter that should be going and have around the exact sizes you mentioned.

Definitely looking forward to it!

Southwest is having a sale on pretty much everything right now. They didn't post a list of fares because it's on almost all their routes.

If you know you want to fly Southwest, now would be a really good time to go.

Tickets have to be purchased by October 31st.

Tulsa, Oklahoma to Reno, Round trip, all fees and taxes... $224.50!
American Airlines is based out of Tulsa, maybe that is why the price is less... I don't know about flying poles and the cost, but it is worth checking out...
See you in Reno... If you are there come find the Vaultiletics shirts... I will be giving away several all weekend Long...
