Western NY pole vault - practice meet - 8'6" attempts

[breakaway2008]

ew I almost forgot how bad I used to be. I'm a batavian (we all had pretty awful form in this video, I'm not going to say which XP). Glad to say my form is pretty good now, and I've been over 13' in practice. But I choked in outdoor sectionals, and it was my senior year, so I guess that's the end of that.

yeah the run is way short to do much at all. I see some guys getting a good bend to they're pole but they're not leaning with the bend to drive their heels up and get their hips facing away from the pit. you have to feel that upside down position to use the pole to fling you over.
