3.) Plant the end of the pole into a small pit

4.) Jump into the air

5.) Go upside while bringing your legs up above your hips

The rules of pole vault state that each competitors weight must be recorded before a meet. There cannot be more than three tries at any one height. After a jump, the pole vaulter has to take a second attempt at the same height or pass.
