Pole vault Bruise Fix and Guard! | Team Hoot

[@soniclord0]

I want you to know how much I appreciate your advice for young coaches. I am a first year pole vault coach, and I have been repeating myself a lot to try and find the one thing that sticks in the kids brain. I like the idea of explaining it multiple ways even if it is corny. I am taking your simple advice in stride. Not only are my kids having a little more fun, but they are learning as well. As my high school coach used to say, "simple things done extraordinarily well." I am capable of asking you many questions on how you deal with day to day struggles of coaching, but i will save that for a later day.

[@TeamHootPoleVault]

Thanks for the kind words! as as many questions as you want since i like answering them! Let me know if you come up with and new ways of saying things. I'm always collecting things for me coaching tool box!

[@revilo7057]

Just started pole vaulting for my final year of high school excited to see what I can do my final year of track also sad that it's my last year

[@TeamHootPoleVault]

I'm excited for you too! Let me know how it goes!

[@morganlatham7121]

Keeping a straight trail leg is definitely a huge whole in both mine and my brother's jumps so that would be pretty swell!

[@TeamHootPoleVault]

Thanks for letting me know! I'll wait to see what the masses say and make a call in a few days!

I know we've talked before but I have an actual problem now. In a couple of weeks, I'm going to be going to a 2x a week pole vault camp. I've talked to the coach there during indoor meets and he even tried to help me during my jumps. My predicament is that the camp coach and my school coach both want me to vault differently. For example, my school coach says I should get into a ball, ride the pole in that position, and kick my legs out. The camp coach says I shouldn't ball and kick because it ruins my trail leg and introduces extra problems. Their mentalities differ in other ways too. What do you recommend I do about conflicting advice? Just FYI, I haven't mastered either method yet so I still don't know what works for me. It is likely that since I have 2 sessions a week at the camp plus 2 meets a week where I pole vault I won't be practicing with my school coach anyway, but I don't know how he will react to me vaulting differently. I just don't know what to do. Sorry for the super long comment, I am just really confused.

[@WarrenMillerPV]

Marshall Testa well easy solution ls your school Coach is wrong man if you are getting into a ball then you lose the power that you gain from your swing and take off

[@TeamHootPoleVault]

Id jump like the camp coach says. Even the vaulters who do bull up its after a swing (even if its shorter than others). A swing adds energy into your jump! adding energy is better than getting into positions. So swing swing swing. In the end, you are the athlete and get to make that call! If you use the horse to water analogy, The coach can only lead you to the water (If i'm allowed to call you a horse for this example) Its up to you if you're thirsty or not.

[@marshalltesta8302]

Okay thanks. It's weird because my school coach tells us that our first priority is getting bend out of the pole, and puts very little emphasis on the swing, an early plant, staying tight at the top, and drive knee. He also calls himself a 17' vaulter for the one time everything came together and he shot over a 14' bar. Great guy but he might not be the best coach.

[@beckettstoeckel9415]

When i pole vault i always seem to land on the bar at 9 feet i am in 8th grade what should i do

[@TeamHootPoleVault]

Its hard to saw without seeing your jump... Id imagine that you're not trying to go deep in the pit. Most kids jump for the bar which makes them come up short. By trying to land deep in the pit, the poles are made to throw you over the bar. Trust it

[@evansalmonsen]

Hey Shawn I'm confused on how to send you $5 for coaching. So we go to your website fill out the form and check out with a credit card not PayPal? Then after you pay where do you send the videos to? Thanks!

[@ShawnFrancis19]

Evan Salmonsen follow all the steps you just said, than I'll email you and you send me an email you attach the video and I review it! we have to jump through a hoop since my website won't let people besides me upload videos.

[@evansalmonsen]

Shawn Francis do you have a paypal I could send money to? Or do we have to use credit card

[@TeamHootPoleVault]

Paypal totally works! Its connected to my site as a payment option!

[@evansalmonsen]

Sweet i just sent the money, Thank you for the help

[@zeina5584]

Is it wrong to not have a straight trail leg?

[@TeamHootPoleVault]

Its not wrong, just ineffective coming from an energy stand point

[@zeina5584]

Team Hoot Pole Vault so i will need to do it on bigger poles right?

[@randygodsey3124]

[@TeamHootPoleVault]
