I never link to videos 7min long.
But in Joel Pocklington‘s case, I’ll make an exception. This is insane.
Have you ever seen pole vault acrobatics? Cool.
An edit from 185 different videos filmed across 47 different locations worldwide. Inspired in part by the great Damien Walters.
Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.
Joel represented Australia in Pole Vault at the World University Games in Belgrade, Serbia, 2009.
I wonder what his Athletics coach thinks of the video?

Hi Rick,
Funny you mention Pole Vault Acro…
Andre Vallerand was here in Florida for a visit a few weeks ago…we were talking about projects they had worked on at CdS in Montreal…one of the projects was Pole Vault Acro…It sounds like it was a cool project, but was ultimately limited and a bit of a dead end after exploration.
From Andre I heard of it for the first time…and now thanks to you and this vid I’ve seen it for the first time…all in about a two week span.
Have fun at Nationals…
Wish I was there (for old times sake…)
Cheers,
Matthew
I’ll send your sunny best regards to the long suffering coaches.
