Great Job Jake :yes:

Where did you jump your 16'7" at? Indoors or Outdoors? It's too cold in the midwest to be outside already :crying:
I would much rather work with 100% heart and 75% talent than 100% talent and 75% heart!

Yeah it was at the Rolling Meadows pole vault summit. It was so amazing! Phil also had some great attempts at 16-7.

Kyle Mills-Bunje of st francis hs in mountain view, CA. this is his second season vaulting and he hit 16-6 indoors in mid february. The guy is a huge raw talent and also multi event althlete. triple jump 47 long 23 etc and made it to california state meet finals last year in 3 events i think (vault, triple, long).

Kyle is a beast! Don't know what his plans are for college, but someone will land a great athlete if they get him!

Thanks Adam! After Nike Indoors, I need a good slammin'!

We're still feeling out some new poles and new grips, and it's coming around. Our outdoor season officially kicks off next Friday, so we'll see.

There's a ton of talent everywhere this year and that bar is going to go high!
