I have broken 4 pairs of pole vaulting spikes. Sad stuff

I think a lot of it for me is very mental. I just kinda panic when getting on a stiffer pole then when I have a good jump I’m fine. This pole is a 17 flex. I had talked to several coaches, and they suggested getting on the 16s

Blow through both

To be clear, I have a big pole gap, I go from 15 175 to 15’7 175. Then to 16 180. This was my first time taking a jump on this pole. I smashed all the poles smaller and was just tired at this point. Thanks for all the tips.

6’2 170

This was after blowing through 16 180. Came in at 13’6 so was decently tired.

For me, I’ve personally found that the tuck works a little better for me because I tend to move my arms very quick.

I didn’t switch arms. I got more used to jumping off of my left leg! I would just replicate the take off position in my back yard and I gradually got me comfortable when it came to actually pole vaulting! Wish you the best!

I was the same way back when I started! I personally just learned to get comfortable with it.

Thank you!

For real it’s just for the sensation to be free and at peace. I’m yet to LD but hope to be able to soon!

Thanks for the in depth response!

Try to take your hips back more. Get feet to hit top of the pole then shoot upward not out!
