That's my buddy Pat. He's 6-2, 180 lbs, and he could barely fit his hands around it. :P

Re: vaulting in movies

There was a poster in the new movie Land of the Lost related with a picture of a vaulter on it. It said Risk- If you don't make it, it's your own damn "vault" http://i41.tinypic.com/2ewzjw7.jpg Later on in the movie, Will Ferrell actually pole vaults (poorly) http://i39.tinypic.com/2lo22hw...

Re: Paralyzed pole vaulter wins lawsuit

Since I attend Southern, this is pretty big news around the older track team members. While talking with my closer team mates, we haven't been able to figure out where the 6.4 million is coming from.

Re: heaviest pole

Re: heaviest pole

UCS currently produces a 5.20 meter 220 pound pole, but as previously mentioned, weight ratings become negligible at that length http://www.ucsspirit.com/vaulting-poles/product-detail.cfm/category/Spirit-Poles/product/520-Series-Spirit-Poles

Re: Coach needs Help!!

I agree with Kirk on this ( not that I’ve disagreed before, but I have experience in the matter) Perhaps she's hurt herself before, by falling on the bar? (Psychological issue to deal with.) I have ruptured an ear drum from the bar falling on my ear and sealing EXACTLY the right way to create enough...
