    I was pole vaulting in the 60's and using aluminium poles into a sand pit. The only thing that got you over the bar was your upper body strength and speed. I loved it.

    What happened to the steel pole era? This era isn't even mentioned. Also, there must have been some incredible accidents when the wood/bamboo snapped. Those early pioneers, like the top vaulters today, are part elite athlete and part daredevil.

      +Ferdorski I suppose as long as everyone is using the same gear, but it does seem like the slingshot poles would give unfair advantage to heavier/stronger vaulters vs. graceful ones.

      My first pole was Swedish Steel, it was damage (and free) so I sawed if off at 10' to vault in backyard at age 12. Pit was tires, raw bed springs, old matresses.

      By steel you mean aluminum right? I’m old enough to remember them going from bamboo to aluminum but not for long before fiberglass came out then carbon… I remember when the “Cloud 9” was the thing to land on… lol was quite an improvement over sawdust. Me… I was a shot putter … LOL

      Sand? Never saw sand in a pole vault pit. Before the mid-60s we used sawdust (actually more like wood shavings or chips). Your landing technique was probably more important than your vaulting technique.

    • @dogbig02
      @dogbig02 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yes it is true. In 1960 the pole vault, and high jump pits were both sand. Our one and only pole was Swedish steel.

  • @willrieffer1730
    @willrieffer1730 10 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    In the 80's I was a high school vaulter. I learned to vault from Rick Attig at his camp. On my own I came to use the same sort of pole bending before the takeoff foot and locked left arm technique in this vid. This is, of course very contrary to the Russian orthodoxy of the long jump type of takeoff. I tend to think it allows the leg to continue energizing the pole. This trick is not getting ripped back by the pole...

    @jackschitt7783 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I can imagine the difference it makes as to how high they can go has changed significantly with how the pole flex flings them today. It's like a big spring anymore. Looks like they were just rigid wooden poles when they started.

  • @felixxxf
    @felixxxf 15 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    thanks for sharing this cool video! I always wondered how could huffman develop such "particular" technique... if a normal "fly-away" over the bar has a degree of difficulty i cant imagine doing it with that technique... but as said... it worked for him so it was fine, apart from the records & techniques huffman, bubka and many others made pole vault during the 90s the greatest pole vault era of all times... It will never be the same without those guys

  • @PVjules
    @PVjules  16 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Thanks for your critical point of view.
    About Huffman, it's more a ;) than a real tribute... the background message is the following: "Technique is important to add energy into the pole during the vault and to recover it during the extension of the pole. But don't focus on the technique" And the "Huffman's roller" is a good illustration, I think.
    Moreover, the Huffman's part was made also to reply for a high number of comments in a previous video... "who's this pole vaulter?"

  • @CharlesWII
    @CharlesWII 16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    There's no doubt that hoffman is the master of a strange way to vault, and for that i think he's one of the boldest and greatest vaulters ever :D
    Yeah it's great when people can have a civil debate about pole vaulting, really enjoyable. :-)
    i'm looking at the link as we speak...

  • @PVjules
    @PVjules  16 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Many thanks.
    I don't know if you read the description of the video (right and up into the screen), but I explain that there is not just ONE technique to be a great athlete... we have to follow some basic biomechanics rules to vault higher. To resume, each athlete could have more or less its own technique. And I think that Hoffmann is a good example in this way. That's why I use "master"...He's a former US pole vault record holder, no? I think it's great and high.

  • @citizentwain
    @citizentwain 14 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The Huffman Bubka debate is interesting. Obviously Bubka was the more dominant vaulter of the era. He was also a fair bit taller than Huffman which is a great advantage. Bubka was revered for his runway speed, achieving 10m/sec one out of six vaults. Although not measurably faster, Huffman was more consistent, achieving 10m/sec 5 out of 6 times. Crazy fast. I forget if it was Tarasov or Trandenkov, but one of those guys saw the genius of the Huffman roll & tried to learn it to no avail.

  • @PVjules
    @PVjules  16 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Maybe my message is not really clear...
    Huffman is one vaulter, who's managed to show that there is not only ONE "perfect" technique in pole vault.
    he managed to be efficient with is own technique. In this way, he is a master. Sure, Bubka is still the big boss ;)

  • @EricGestrich
    @EricGestrich 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Right, skipped the stiff metal pole in 1967. I imagine better poles were already available, depending on the school’s budget. Pit was sand (or sometimes old mattresses or tires), until the inflatable type in the early ‘70s, which frequently bounced you off from back or sides. What a thrill to first experience a fiberglass pole. (Why do I feel like my Grandpa telling the kids “how it was in my day”?)

  • @CharlesWII
    @CharlesWII 16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yeah hoffman is awesome, anyone who can jump over 6m has to be doing something right - especially when you do it in such an emphatic way - but at the end of the day the master of pole vault, any aspect of pole vault, is generally going to be considered to be bubka. After all, he's jumped higher than anyone else ever has. That's why i was saying that 'hoffman's the master' is a pretty controversial opinion. Not wrong, just controversial.
    :)
    Again, awesome video, thanks.

  • @PVjules
    @PVjules  16 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Yes, I agree with you, the master in pole vault... is BUBKA. No doubt about his supremacy!!
    About Huffman, maybe I should write:"Huffmann the master of strange way to vault or the master of exploring a new way of fly..." ;-)

    @tbenjaminkx42 Yes I watched few ones. Look on youtube at the Donetsk meeting where Bubka set the indoor WR (1993). Huffmann was in that field and made vaults with a classical technique.
    You see him at 1'03 (planting box); at 2'24 (beside Bubka in the press conference) and at 4'40 (first vault);

    Depends how fast you are and how good your body weight strength is... You'd definitely want a pole with thickness around 180lb if you were looking to bend it a lot. When I started I was on a 12ft 100lb but I was only 11ish. Now I am 15 and moving onto a 14ft 145lb and I weigh 59kg jumping 11ft. Obviously technique and weight will have a large factor on what pole you need...

      Steel was actually used for a very short period of time and not many people used them.

    This is very flawed, you skipped the breef but very important steel pole era and you said Scott Huffman was the master.

      sorry m8 I made the video with ressources I had. I stated Scott H. as a master in finding an other way of pole vaulting.

      @sorrym8421 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      PVjules Masters don't find another way, Masters are the one's who lay the ground work for the future and that's what bubka did. 99% of vaulters use Bubkas technique, that is why he is the master. However, I respect your opinion.

    Where is Bubka in this video? Without him, the discussion of the pole vault is like the discussion of the history of rock and pop music without ever mentioning the Beatles. This guy Huffman has ugly technique. It may be original but he should have learned how to push from the pole, not how to spin in the air.
