Re: Timing of the PULL

In an ideal vault, the pull should begin as soon as the takeoff toe leaves the ground, meaning "conscious effort" should begin slightly before that.

Also,just to eliminate any other variable you will try to hide behind, let's assume a grip height of 15 ft. or more. Oh and do please provide your rational!
It's simple....
The swing starts as the plant/takeoff ends...
Re the above statement. This is the reason I am not going to play games and reply! I re-interate I'm not interested because your statement as quoted shows any response will be a waste of my effort and time.

... Many of you experts even swallowed this myth up like Fish, hook line and Sinker! The sad thing is in the process you have hurt many minnows just trying to learn to swim. NOT ANYMORE! THE WICKED EARLY PULL WITCH IS DEAD! THE JIG OR THE GIG PROMOTED FROM RUSSIA AND AUSTRALIA IS OVER FOR GOOD! LOL DEAL WITH IT!
Your posts on the timing of the "lower Arm pull" are unfortunately so confused and misguided as to be yet more incomprehensible twaddle!
It is worth mentioning here that the arrest of the shoulders after the deep penetration
ensures the drive of the hips upwards to the pole, through active unbending of the left
arm
When the vaulter is unbending, the pole also has the highest speed of uncoiling
upwards, therefore, the combination of the pole's carrying capacity and the athlete's
unbending movement generates an accelerated thrust upwards, and by the end of the
unbending movement the centroidal axis reaches the maximum vertical speed
(Bubka's speed reached up to 6 m/s).
An active turn over onto the shoulders should
end when arms come in use in order to stretch the body along the pole. By this
movement the vaulter maintains the speed of the body's thrust upwards One of the
vaulter's tasks during the pull up is keeping the body close to the pole.
In transit to the push the vaulter – apart from the turn left to the pole – uses the
rotation of the pole in the bearing point. With their high upward speed, many great
vaulters, after their right hand releases the pole, are still in the vertical position
Continued acceleration of the last 4 strides is an indication of good skills acquired in
this part of the pole vault (pole drop/plant). The speed of Sergei Bubka shown in his
best vaults continued to grow until the take-off, as follows:
4 strides before take-off: 9.5 m/sec
2 strides before take-off: 9.7 m/secbefore take-off: 9.9 m/sec
before take-off: 9.9 m/sec
