Unread postby oakduck » Sat Mar 12, 2005 10:48 pm

Clint Hughes (Livingston) Wins with 16'6, Derrick Taylor (Tomball) 2nd 16'0", Alex Bentley (Tomball) 3rd 16'0"

See videos of these jumps at http://www.oakvault.com/

All three vaulters cleared 16'0 on first attempt. Quite a site to see.

make sure you measure your bars. :P Clint hughes has a 15'7" pole but it appears to be over the 15' bar. it should go under it. all the way through the videos the space from pole seems to be about 6" off...I think these results are about 6" higher than the real height...lets just see them jump it again. :yes:
i think before my days are done.
