my dad used to jump back at the university of illinois when i was 2 so he wanted me to i guess so kinda tought me but about 2 years ago katie veith(14 foot jr.) and hunter hall(16 6 feet as a sophmore now a jr. also hallvaulter) started up and i always wanted to hang out but they were always practicing so i really started jumping and practicing instead of just randomly messing around with it whenever i felt like it...no my middle school doesnt have it my high school doesnt even have it but i can have my dad coach me and that kind of stuff...my dad is the one that still coaches hunter and katie to those enormous hights.....any more questions i have a website at www.nitropv.tk and there is a way you can contact me if anyone wants to talk

thanks,
nitro

I can remember when Bob used to bring Corey over to the Sunday all comers meets at Purdue when he was a little kid and had the super long extensions that went down to 4' so Corey could make a bar. Bob had to tell him to when to start running because he'd try to run down the runway and jump before they'd put the bar up.

Nice job Corey and Bob! :yes:
