i broke a pole just today... it broke about 2 ft from the bottom and just bent in half... my teammates say i kicked it a bit on the way up, would that do it, or would it have to be the pole?
You have my sympathies, but lower the grip, shorten the approach, and make sure you're able to control the jumps first. The trick to pole vaulting safely is patience and tons of practice. Make hundreds of practise jumps with a short approach and gripping the pole low - the lower hand just as high as you can reach.
hate this sim city 3000 song, depressing

if you cant keep up your speed like that in a 6 step you should probobly practice more on a 4 or 5

If you had a better plant, you wouldn't be as slow and you'd probably be able to use that pole.
