What is the best jumping spikes for track?

The best depends on which event you are competing in, but I assume you mean one of the horizontal jumps. Long jumpers, triple jumpers and pole vaulters normally wear similar shoes. Normally the long jump shoes don't have as thick of a heel as the triple jump shoes. Pole vaulters almost always wear a long jump or triple jump shoe but some prefer sprinting spikes, although these offer no heel protection and I wouldn't recommend them. A site that would be the best for ordering jumping spikes, or any spikes for that matter, is First to the Finish, and their URL is www.fttf.com.


What types of poles were there for pole vaulting?

In "olden" days, poles might have been made out of aluminum, which is pretty much the same material as the bar that vaulters try to vault over. However, nowadays vaulters use poles made of fiber-glass, which is much lighter and more flexible. Pole lengths may vary, but the minimum is usually (unofficially) around 12ft. and the max depends on the height you are attempting to vault over.
