btw you don't extend your hips, that will make you flag out. you are supposed to hold your legs and drop your chest. I know it sounds like the same thing but it makes a significant difference

His is not from Russia, if you say from soviet union I dont mind but when you are writing where he is from exactly just be honest:)

hold your legs? drop your chest? if you watch your own video on your page, you will see on your ring swing drill that your hips generate your swing momentum. The hips also dictate where the vaulter will be flung as the pole uncoils. The hips are more important, so, you extend your hips vertically. Flagging off is caused by not closing off during lock in phase (or the lack of strength of an athlete to stay close to the pole and keep the legs aimed vertically).
Hope that helps. :)

Bubka was actually Russia's project. Yes, you are correct Bubka is from the Soviet Union, Donetsk (Ukrainian). Granted Bubka would of liked to not be representative of Russia. But, Russia housed and paid the bills to make him who he is. The video does not suggest he is from Russia, just that Bubka was Russia's project. Hope that makes sense to you.
