hey,

it was an extreme pleasure duppawpaw to meet and see your family and see you enjoying pole vaulting the way you do..

Mondo was "bringing it" better than any of our (USA) world class jumpers... maybe the vault community will take note and pull their "drawers" up and start to jump some world class jumps...

Mondo shows what can be done if you let an athlete set his own limits and give them opportinity and a little direction...

AWESOME..

looking forward to more in the future..

Mondo is amazing! :yes:

From what I can see ... he's using a very good basic Petrov Model technique. :yes:

12-7 ... and in BARE FEET! :star:

Who here on PVP has ever vaulted 12-7 in bare feet? I'll bet not many of you! I sure haven't.

Greg is saving a ton of money on track shoes right now, but very soon Mondo will be able to wear whatever brand of spikes he wants ... for FREE! :yes:
