women can still vault pretty high, but they tend to focus more on finesse in the plant and run up where most men have a good not amazing run up, but they have the brute strength that women dont have to push themselves off the pole over the bar
I wish i started pole vaulting my freshmen year. Im a senior in highschool now and its my first year in track. On my very first meet I cleared 10' and made districts. All of these jumps are just amazing.
@10theoneandonly10 I agree, look at Isinbayeva, her plant is NOT as good as most of the elite men. She just doesn't have the strength to hold strong pressure with the bottom hand, and most women don't for that matter. They also can't get the vertical lift off the ground that men can which hurts their take off further.
depends on what division really. D1 guys need to be going over 15 at the very least. In D3 you would be competitive if you go 13 6. I vault for a D3 team in indiana and it looks like fifteen feet will win our conference this year. and 13 will place.
well it depends on what kind of school.. if your thinking like maybe a community college 12 to 13 or a bigger school like a university you should be getting around 16
I just went 13'6 tying the sophomore record at my school. Aiming for 14 next week, our school record is 14'9 though. Hurray for the 13'6 sophomores. :D
Women are technically not very good at the pull turn or getting completley inverted- unless we're talking about those russian gymnists.
Basically- only the elite women have very good form. Not to say that women can't vault because 5m is the womens world record and thats pretty damn high.
chelsea johnson she is going to the world championships in berlin this august...her father jan johnson used to vault he got a bronze medal in the olympics
Well You gotta make sure you run fast and plat correctly.
When you take off, you have to push the pole forward with your bottom hand and hang with your top hand. Swing your take off leg hard as you rock back and continue from there.
It's important to be on the right pole for your speed and height. too stiff a pole will be too hard to bend if you are a beginner.
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH. That tip got me first place at my track meet today. I cleared 9'6". With practice I could possibly go to regionals. Again thank you so much
great great video, but very gay songs :S... for de bend 117jones sometimes you need to check your hands man,it always helps and maybe your speed in the movements.
8:51 is my coach, hes a beast. Go daniel ryland. i just started in 10th grade geting 8 foot first meet and the he came and my next meet was 9 then 10, 10 and then 11. still climbing...
my "little norberg buddy"? So you have to ask the guy if its him..? you cant tell by looking at him. so you're telling me that the bald guy, with the black speed suit is ryland?
dude... its fucking norberg... okay? I spend about 4 hours a day online watching pole vault clips... i'm familiar with MANY clips... that is fucking norberg i don't care what you think... watch vertical minds... there is an entire interview with him in it... and that clip is featured in the norberg section of Neovault... so i have no idea what your talking about...
This may be common knowledge and- Correct me if im wrong, but looking At bubka vault, he has a relatively close set hand grip in comparison to most vaulters..
didn't you see Tommy skipper, Toby stevenson, jeff hartwig, Scott huffman, Justin Norberg, sergey...? most all of the women Vaulters? Sorry to dissagree but i saw tons of the approach runs
it seems like everyone is tucking and shooting.. even know Toby does and hes the BOSS... but Bubka is jesus and he dosent... does anyone know if their is a deficiency
There is a difference...Bubka held his tuck much longer and rode the bend of the pole. A lot of the vaulters tuck and shoot...watch the angle of their body when they arrive at the crossbar. Bubka was straight up and went over. I loved to vault and miss it so much.
my other post was suppose to be in response to vaulter supreme's quest.
And btw i wanted to mention that although i love watching the guys vault, it's nice to see the girls get some recognition in this video. Great Clips of Becky Holiday in the begining- i think she's technically really good, she has to be doing something right, she's not very tall! And no, my name is not Becky Holiday, nor am i related to her.
no offense or anything... but the nelly song doesn't work at all with the video... in fact i think its pretty dreadfull... but i LOVE the rest of it...
you could feasibly just type the words of the songs into like google... and it would come up with the name of the song because it would come up with the websites that give like the lyrics to them... that'd be easier than asking...
Yeah, jeff is the second vaulter after the clips of derek (sorry, didn't pay good enough attention to your original question!). The easiest way to tell Derek is the legs that make up, ohh, 85% of his height, and with jeff he's usually jumping on striped poles. Incredible vaulters, huh?!
there's no place like Jonesboro, AR in the world, esp when it comes to vaultin! it's such a unique atmosphere, i think every vaulter should make the trip at least once, even if just to say they did. I did for the first time about 5 years ago....and oh crap....i just realized i never left....i live there now, jeez!
10's o.k., it's a little above average, a very good height to be jumping after 3 months is like 11'6"... average is about 9'6"... so yea 10's not bad..
This is probably the best pole vault video I've ver seen. The music could be different, it's not really pole vaultish. Maybe some not emo music or techno would suffice.
