great job on the video, anyone who takes the time to show pole vaulting and our love for the sport is a friend of mine

geez... i see all these people with coaches...haha my school needs one pretty bad to be honest!

man i broke a pole a couple weeks ago a week before my regional tournament. i didnt vault all week. at regionals i borrowed a smaller pole from someone just to get a small little vault in to get my head back in the game. i still sucked but i'm glad that i vaulted again. my season ended that day. i learned to just vault cuz u'll regret it in the end.

i got my PR of 13 6 with a head wind :D

that is so true if mess up or you get hurt you just have to keep going i have only been vaulting 4 about 3 months and i hav fallen in th whole 2

for the the new peeps out there. if you think this may be a problem for you, DONT!!! Dont think, just do it. GRIP IT AND RIP IT!

Thank you for posting this video! I am a sophomore in high school and have been vaulting since my freshman year. This sport is such a mental game and it is so important to visualize, and it helps show the importance of it when the pros say that they do it.

i just started vaulting, and i realize how mental it really is. its a lot like rock climbing, before you do the first route, ou cant psyc yourself out or else you fess

I now have the Vertical Minds DVD for sale. If your interested, message me on youtube with your email address and I'll send you an order form!

its so true about taking it personally ive ran through, or miffed a height i knew i could clear, i actually punched a fence i was so mad, i didn't need to be so angry
