this is outrageous, he takes off from like twenty feet out!

[pvkoala21]

Bubkas goal was a free take off (foot off the ground before the pole hits the back of the box) it only looks like he's out when really he's right on.

@pvguy847 gonads.  serious ones.

This vault looks different than some most of Bubka's other vaults I have seen. Left arm looks over bent on take off and he does not penetrate as deep. Looks like he committed to a vault that should never have happened but he is so fast he pulled it off.

[gautlet996]

his arm is bent but out to the left it is part of the techinique that he uses, what the arm allows him to do is to rotate back and let his chest come forward.

[gautlet996]

he knows how to really utalize the swing position or penatration of the pole. His timeing is just so perfect which is why he was able to jump higher than his competitors. Not to mention his superb speed on the run way and his amazing strength.

yeah, i'm also curious as to what aspects differs from alan's and petrov's take on the vault. i coached a summer camp where alan was one of the coaches present and was just wondering.

[CharlesWII]

absolutely awe inspiring...

[polevault14]

pretty awesome

[joebro391]

which parts do you disagree with in the original?? i'm curious. i'm not a bill faulk man either. i prefer alan launder with the petrov modle

[natefox21]

in the orig, he says a few things:

1. the drive swing is only forward and shoulders stay above the hips. and while he's saying that bubka is obviously driving his chest UP and his hips are in front of his chest.

2. he says pull on the left while finishing the inversion. there should NEVER be a pull on your left. *allow* it in yes, but not pull.

also, I agree with the Petrov model, but not Alan's interpretation of it. he's severely off in a few aspects (according to Petrov himself)

[decanuck]

Just curious, what aspects of the Petrov model do you believe Launder has misinterpreted?

[joebro391]

REALLY?? um, what does alan do differentl???

[faucetmaneuver9]

Yeah... he probably has never met Coach Launder in person, and probably has not read BTB. I would be quite suprised if he has done either, because by that comment, he's just making himself look foolish...

[joebro391]

i just want to know what natefox says "according to petrov", alan does different. but he's not responding, so i guess he's full of crap

[faucetmaneuver9]

I wonder if he's on PVP... I'd love to see him come and take on altius there! PAHAHAHA!!!

Nice video, I wish it was from the other side so I could watch his pull/turn
