I had a lot of good looks at 4.80 but I got caught looking at the bar, every time. Thanks to everyone who came out to watch and support the meet.

Another Free Drill. Place the mini hurdles 4-6 feet apart and focus on running with proficient mechanics and quick turnonver. Key to mastering this drill: head up, knees up, toes up

Chris Smith 4 Lefts from 58'4". 13'9" grip on 14'6" 17.1 and 16.2 4.40 xxo 4.55 xo 4.70 o (yup) 4.85 xxx I definitely treated today like a Saturday morning. Unfortunately it was my first "meet" since August and it was my first time jumping from 4 Lefts in a meet situation. There is a lot of room for improvement after the takeoff, but compared to last year this time I am much further along.

16' Pacer Carbon, 15-3 grip, 2 Lefts (4 steps), 13-6 takeoff I actually noticed when I slowed the video down that I am actually taking off that far out and holding that high from 2 lefts. Of course, I cant move the pole to vertical from there, but it makes me think I can jump that grip from closer than a full approach. I'm maintaining a good position and Bryan is assisiting once i can move the pole anymore. We may try the same drill from 4 lefts.

They were teaching me "gymnast stuff", then they tried some pole vault drills for the camera.
