The mix of pole vault !

Another mix by Tomas !

[@edwarda.chestnut3412]

I've seen this series of vaults several times, and I still love it. Reminds me of my PV career at Northeastern U 1967-71.

[@HBS2008]

I'm a pole vaulter too. I can only do 8'6" but a friend of mine did 15' this year as a junior in high school. Sweet video and sweet music. Those shots from the Olympics were awesome!

[@michaejlt]

Outstanding video and the music was excellent!!
thanks for sharing

[@RJWilliams1211]

as a fellow pole vaulter i think this is the F@#$#@$ best video i have ever seen, watch it everyday before a meet

[@AngelicaBengtssonPV]

Love this film :D I watched this film the day before I compeeted in WYC in Bressanone, Italy, in pole vault. I was so excited afterward that I won :D I'm a 16 year old girl and I jumped 4,32m, I had a PB outside before on 4,12m. Thanks!

[@elisar34]

Dang! I miss pole-vaulting so much! I wish i never stopped!

[@CharlesWII]

exactly. Best sense i've seen on this page.

[@evanF4B10]

im so glad the indoor season started back up, first meet drove 3 hours to west virginia and got 11'6. my outdoor best is 12 (summer going into sophmore high school year). im happy since i dont have a facility to train in for indoors.

[@englishtamil]

well mixed, am sure you put a lot of time in to it. neat work

[@CharlesWII]

i love that bit at 5:20

[@ging4snapz]

this clip really shows the vault from a great angle!

@slashfan7777 - You need a shorter pole to progress. Gripping a longer and heavier pole lower increases the weight of the pole 5 - 10 pounds for every 6" down that you grip! So if you are gripping a foot down on a 170, it's like vaulting on a 180-190 pound pole. Hope this helps... of course, there are many other factors but, this is something to consider.

[@Notic13]

Great one !

[@ichunktone]

actually it's the exact same jump you would do for long jump, except you're jamming a 16 foot pole into a hole, storing energy in the pole, then it returns it to you.

[@aLesiTa11]

lov that song ,,,love more this sport!!!!

[@batdorfdan]

first time i tried vaulting was in gym class 10th grade did 9 foot lol my gym teacher was goin nuts.
in 10th grade(first year) went to states and PRed at 10 feet. this spring jumping about 14'6 on a 15'6 175 ucs and im still blowin through it, my coach is tryin to find me a bigger pole, never expected to try to go to college for pole vault!

[@haks11ence]

14'9" on a 15ft 180lb carbon fx at jersey jumps beach vault as a junior :P i only weigh 160 lol. going for 16ft by the end of my senior year. got all of indor and outdoor to get there. jumping 15' 3" with a bar in practice now :P wish me luck!!!

[@MrBigT008]

@Tarzan07330 I can relate with the frustration when things went wrong. I was never suspended, but that feeling drove me crazy and usually brought me down the rest of the meet. It's good to hear that you're still doing it though. Like I said earlier, it seems like a lot of good things are going for you, and I really wish it stays that way! Thank you for you kind words. I'll keep doing my best!

[@MasianMan]

thx i was working on a trainer for like 2 hours and im starting to get it.

[@fighterchick017]

vaulting is so much fun, ((:
i love it.

[@MasianMan]

all you have to do is do some pop ups and just work on driving your knee and keeping your legs together. it will feel weird but after awhile it feels comfortable and will help a lot later on when you need to swing up and turn

[@ohiowake]

Masia, she's a soph in high school. she started vaulting just last year as a freshman.

[@MrBigT008]

@felipfrmstarbucks Yes, Tarzan07330 and I have been having the pole vault duscussion for a short while now. I agree, though, that gymnastics is a very athletic sport. Gymnastics is somewhat similar to the decathlon in terms of their demands; physical strength, coordination, and endurance among other thigns. A few more things the decathlon requires in order to be successful is jumping ability and speed. In gymnastics they use springs in their jumping and the farthest a gymnasts runs is about 12m.

[@dezmondandsunny]

dude this is sick!!! imma pole vault tomarro this is my first time im in the 7th greade but we are only going to belike 7 and a half feet in the air i think i got this because im a freerunner and im use to jummping at hight distances

[@armwood2010]

this is my first year pole vaulting but my second year on track and field, and i love it so much. my PR for vaulting is 10' and i havent even started bending the pole yet.......(i dont know how) lol. i just wish i would have started pole vaulting my freshman year. i think id be a lot better. BTW im a senior. =P

[@EmmJanee2012]

this gets me so pumped. lol

[@RobMortel]

wow. i'm amazed.

[@lianavault9624]

Nice video! :)

[@Delantho]

@armwood2010 if youre using a pole near your body weight and are holding at the end of the pole (well 6 inches from the end) you should be bending the pole, just keep your bottom arm straight and hold your plant position, the pole will bend and pull you up with it, then you do the rockback etc. i just learned to bend the pole last year and im a senior. last year i could only get 10' but as soon as i started bending i can vault 14' plus now

[@mokenaman1]

This video is so sweet I watch it all the time. pole vaulting is great. this is so cool. What is the name of the song?

[@8TT8mc]

where can I download theese videoe...?answer please...P.S.your videos have e particulary power, thanks to the music.COMPLIMENTS (probably my english isn't very right but I'm Italian)

[@LuzonLive]

epic vid

[@Tarzan07330]

@MrBigT008 yeah, i meant that we do the same lifts as sprints...but we also do more on top of that. and no, i'm in college. so it pays for my college bills. gotta love DI schools and scholarships :)

[@threefourthsasleep1345]

Welp, these are now hype videos, this video be older than most of my pole vault buddies

[@aspirepixel]

Well done, but who has access to this much pole vaulting footage!? lol..

[@Tarzan07330]

@MrBigT008 good for you. i had goals similar to yours, but in college i've picked up soooo many hobbies polevault is no longer my biggest goal. plus in high school i was a hot head and even got suspened from track because i would get so pissed when i vaulted bad. college helped me change and just do it for fun. which kinda hurt my drive to get better. but for me, i think it's for the best. i hope you achieve your goals, man!

[@MrBigT008]

@Tarzan07330 Don't forget throws too! The gap between sprinters and pole vaulters in a race, though, widens every level you go up. Lifting wise I would have to say that pole vaulters actually use more advanced lifts, and a bigger variety because of the different muscles being used and a few other factors. I definitely fit into "doing it because I love it" category, and hopefully one day it'll pay too! So you are paid to jump? Have you gone to the olympics or the olympic trials before?

[@Tarzan07330]

@MrBigT008 well all of the multis i know started off as vaulters because it is the hardest to get really good at, no offense to the other events...but it takes more than just being born fast, lifting to get faster and stronger, it takes a lot of training to have great form.

[@MasianMan]

Wow i havnt watched this video in forever brings back some good memories!! Damn theres lots of hostility in this commenting lol people getting vicious. oh and to all those people i been talkin to i went to indoor camp and got 14'6 without turning.... I WANA TURN DAMNIT!!!!!! I'm buying me a pole this winter ne one got sugestions on what poles to get? im 6' 155-160 lbs prob gain more though ne sugestions?

[@Tarzan07330]

you're lucky. our pit was old school and illegal at my high school and our track was that black cinder shit. plus we had drain pipes in lanes 1 and 2 so we couldn't use them. haha. we ended up going dirt biking and 4 wheeling most of the time cuz my coaches trail lead right to our track. haha.

[@EmmJanee2012]

Nice :)

[@ChrisBrowndancer3018]

ooh yeeaaahh !!!

[@alessandrofasse]

I LOVE POLE VAULT :)

[@MrBigT008]

@Tarzan07330 Very true. Nice! Yes, you have to love those D1 scholarships. I'm working my ass off to get a good score in the decathlon. If I get even within 1000 points of it I'll definitely be seen by other colleges. Who do you jump for?

[@911FANGS]

@SmoothSkating
Professional soccer players have extremely powerful legs. Because soccer players mainly use their legs, ppl assume that they don't use their upper body strenth at all, which isn't true. Soccer players have to use their upper body strength to put pressure on other players and they have to stay firm, while being pushed. Seriously, look at soccer players' abs.....they're strong! Although, it's true that pole vaulters need more upper body strength than soccer players.

[@tbenjaminkx42]

@Whoo97 I dive and pole vault. Id have to say diving really helps out

[@tbenjaminkx42]

well if ya think about it you dont really need that deep of a bend depending on how fast you can invert. But yeah Tim's bend is sooo much more that his

[@Tarzan07330]

@MrBigT008 i understand jumps takes form. but sprints is anything different than what vaulters do. most vaulters run just as fast as sprinters because we do the same kind of lifts to get faster. either way, who cares. we do what we do either cuz we love it (ie, myself) or because it pays the bills (i also fit into this category). haha

[@sballer4life23]

i just bend the bar like crazy and hope for the best lol

[@Tarzan07330]

@MrBigT008 I jump for Youngstown State University in Ohio. I actually love it here. I came from an EXTREMELY rural area and our school was a joke...but I like it. It adds character. YSU is a small DI college, so it works out. Plus I'm in charge of outdoor activities here like rock climbing, kayaking, rappelling, slackline, freerunning/parkour, so it's pretty badass. At YSU you see just about everybody and know everyone's face. How bout you?

[@AngelicaBengtssonPV]

@walfitsmetaller
yes, thank you :D

[@MrBigT008]

@Tarzan07330 That is why it is called the most technical event. It also "takes more than just being born fast" to be really good in the running events, "lifting to get faster and stronger" for the explosive events such as the jumps or throws, and they all "take a lot of training to have great form". I do not believe that the pole vaulters you know can do the things that I have said below for the simple fact that they would have had to train outside of pole vaulting. Specialists do not do that.

[@MrBigT008]

@MrBigT008 Nothing against Sergei Bubka, though. He is and will forever be a legend in pole vault. He is an amazing athlete. I am training for the decathlon. For inspiration and to see how the pro does it I watch Bubka's videos on here to learn as much as I can.

[@Eiuvltr]

Dude the male WR is about 4 feet higher than the women's, thats A TON

[@titanrb159]

i think you should be able to celebrate in each height if you want, but then again like with the guuitar idk but i remember it was my first meet of my junior year and i had an ankle injury that took me out for 4 weeks and in the 4th week i had to learn to go from 4 lefts to 6 lefts in 3 days and i put my opening height at 9 ft cuz i wasn't sure and i did a 3 sec dance in the matt after every height till i got out at 12'6

[@MrBigT008]

@NehpetsK57 Sorry to burst your bubble, but Decathletes are the best athletes. They have to do pole vault as well as nine other events. Decathletes may pole vault four to five feet below the world record, but when have you seen a pole vaulter throw a shot-put over 45 feet, run a 400 meter under 48 seconds, or long jump over 23 feet? And that's only three other events, you still have six others that haven't been mentioned.

[@ScottHoustonPV]

actually im pretty sure he doesn't have tap only for his bottum hand, and thats pretty common for what i've seen.

[@MasianMan]

eh its been going ok im gona go get me couple poles here soon hows practice been for u?

[@felipfrmstarbucks]

@MrBigT008 hey some decathletes use to be pole vaulters. and what about people who are in gymnastics? they're extremely athletic too.

[@polishsurfer]

its pretty much technique if you have that down then its pretty much arms and rowing

[@vaulterUk]

Just jumped a new PB of 16ft10" 3/4 from a 16ft 205LBS 14.5 flex pacer cardon Fx holding down at 15ft6"

[@futbolaholic3]

What is the name of this song? I was searching for the one you said before, and I have no luck.

[@MasianMan]

not really but my coach is actually a college coach too lol so he said i should get a couple 14'6 160-165's since he has all the rest i need havn't decided what brand yet though

[@MrBigT008]

@Tarzan07330 Sounds nice, and it seems like you have a lot going for you! I'm a freshman at Butte College, a junior college near Chico, CA. This will be my first year doing the decathlon, but I think I've found the event that I was made for. I'm going to train my butt off to break some records, be regognized by D1 schools, and possibly be known on a national or even world level. It's a high goal, but I plan on achieving it. :)

[@SuperJessRox]

so people can fly!! ;)

[@rrebeiz40]

in high school districts i almost died while a friend of mine soared over 15ft taking the win! these guys in this vid are flying over 18-19.

[@tbenjaminkx42]

Hahahaha verry true my friend=P

[@MaDDy368]

wow, you've already gotten 12ft and your a sophmore?
did you start freshman year?
my best is 8, but i just started like 3 months ago.

[@futbolaholic3]

@NehpetsK57 That's why I did pole vault!

[@tbenjaminkx42]

i think he means the knee drive/swing phase...i guess it kinda looks like a 4

[@MasianMan]

thx hey what state u live in i might see u there i live in washington

[@Zeckell]

Did u do gymnastics?

[@MrBigT008]

@Tarzan07330 I do not know many vaulters personally so I would not be able to back up or go against your statement. Though, now thinking about it, considering that pole vault is the most technical event, I can see how they would be at least decent in several of the other events.

[@polevaultskills]

turn me up - benny benassi

[@cojack92]

anyone know the song? i really like it. haha

[@vaulterUk]

depending on length off pole ur going to get mate imho i would not go for the carbons untill ur on at least 15ft6" poles or 16ft as the weight off them is not realy a problem. pacer FX are great normal poles with the idea to move up to the Carbon FX poles as they lengthen and also ur body wight is not realy

[@batdorfdan]

sorry made a mistake.. PRed at states at 13 feet not 10 dont know how i put that... offically jumped 14'6 today with abotu 6 inches.. really exited

[@mistar80]

който е скачал знае за какво става на въпрос! Другите могат само да гледат без да коментират!!:)

[@MasianMan]

yah i live in washington... califonia oregon and washington best track states..... in most states id be like top 10 but im not in washington im #2 soph though in state

[@Tarzan07330]

@haks11ence dude i'm a junior in college and still trying to get on 15' poles. it sucks! haha. i've gotten 16' on my 14' 7" 195...but i really need to get on a damn 15' pole. the 195 just aint givin me enough lift. i'm 5'8" 160...it sucks bein short. lol

[@slashfan7777]

Hi I am a noob pole vaulter, my PR is 11.5 ft. I used to jump on a pole that was 13 ft and rated for 150lb, i weigh 163lb (I know this isnt allowed) so I have recently purchased a new pole, this is a 14 ft and rated for 170lb. I am having lots of trouble with it. I cant bend the new pole at all. Im not holding it at the very top yet because im too scared it will stand me up, In fact i have tried and it has. I dont know what im doing wrong and i dont have a coach to tell me. Please HELP!

[@MrBigT008]

@thevaulta Yes, Sergei Bubka may be the world record holder for the pole vault, but I doubt he is a great thrower, 400/1500 runner, or a good jumper for the other two jumping events in the decathlon. I will give him the 100 meter sprint because in pole vault you need speed, but he still needs to be better than good in the other eight events. In my opinion, I do not think that Bubka would score over 6700 points in the decathlon.

[@CharlesWII]

raphael holzdeppe ain't too shabby heh

[@blackjosip]

@NehpetsK57 but every pole vault is psychical sick LoL :P I'm Pole Vaulter

@walfitsmetaller

[@911FANGS]

@NehpetsK57
pole vaulters are super athletic....but I think soccer players are the best athletes by far

[@Tarzan07330]

@MrBigT008 most of the better vaulters i encounter can do all those things. that's why a lot of vaulters make the best multi guys/girls ;)
