Wow PV student what a bunch of pseudoscience and sophisticated crap! I've decided I'm just Going to cut to the chase for now on and keep it simple stupid! That should make it a lot easier for others less sophisticated in the sciences to be able to separate the wheat from your chaff. Just in case any...

Kirk casting pearls? What pearls? He's a closed minded follower who's critical thinking skills are so limited he can't think his way out of the paper box you and PV student have him caged in Altius. Lavellenie on the other hand though outside of that box and proved that a shorter, slower man can vau...

Altius, why was this not addressed in your original book? Why was not the benefit of re-extending the bottom arm to lower the vaulters COG mentioned? You, Kirk and others claim this to be a pull. Why were you unable to clearly define and recognize the best timing of the pull in an ideal vault? Why w...

PVstudent, two ships passing in the night. Your talking about centripetal force created by the VAULTERS rotation and I'm CURRENTLY discussing the centripetal force created by the POLE in its counterclockwise rotation! You have yet to even address this question I posed to you? So again PVstudent, ple...

Decamouse: And you insist it is centripetal force - I disagree with that statement - just like the terms "Counter side swing" -- "counter thrust bend" -- please explain them in terms I can understand because they never came up in any course or seminars I ever took or sat in on. C...

Decamous:

why is it none of the upper level coaches every talk about it in terms likes this

Why is it they don't talk about a lot of things and educate us more? They sure like to promote themselves and their book though don't they!

Seeing that I'm in a good mood and throwing out free Pearls today. Hope you don't act like swine anymore! This is NOT the only place that the centripetal force of the rotating (Circular rotation) pole effects the swing path of the vaulter. This force is applied to the vaulter throughout most of the ...

Yes Wan you have captured that moment for me. Thank You.
Decamouse, how can you not see the effect that the centripetal force of the poles rotation is having on Lavellenies swing path here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtZH3Q19w4I#t=3m19s

Vault3rboy: The pole does not apply a centripetal force to the vaulter. In order to do that, the pole would have to apply a force toward the COM of the vaulter as the vaulter rotates. You need to know your facts before correcting somone. Were did you get COM from definition of centripetal force. By ...

Starting at Frame 3:19 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtZH3Q19w4I

Vualt3rboy: I will think about what you are saying. In the mean while, would you please explain the source of the force that directs (twist ) Lavellenies spine to the left and his swing foot tp the right starting at Frame 3:19 ? Why does he have to make a conscious effort to redirect the path of his...

Decamouse- sorry - again never heard anyone else discuss it or even mention it That the leaning, bending, rotating pole applies a centripetal force on the vaulters body and effects the vaulters swing path, directing it to the left or right (depending on what hand you are?) off of perpendicular from ...
