What do you think would have the most impact on your vault for training in the off-season?

the takeoff needs to be absolutely perfect! I jump with a girl that claims to be 5'1", but she isnt even that tall. She jumped 3.80m (12'5") because she has amazing technique at the takeoff! it doesnt hurt that she caps a 13' pole that is 35 lbs over her wieght I am 5'1", and just co...

lol- Ok, thank you for the clarification!

What about Mia Hamm?? She is extremely quick, tall, and pretty strong! I bet she would be a pretty good vaulter! Do you?

I have to admit, the aircraft one is hard to beat! That is a really cool idea! My idea is to have it on the top of a very tall, and big skyscraper in San Francisco!!!

If you could make a list of the hardest sports, which number would pole vaulting be? And which sports do you think are harder?

What kind of advice would you giva a girl who is only about 5 feet tall?
