If you are not
1.) running down the middle of the lane
2.) planting the pole in the middle of the pit
3.) vaulting with an overall centered position
you will
1.) vault either to the left of right of the pit (not good)
2.) potentially hurt yourself (more than likely)

Is there a pole rating available for a 200 pound vaulter?
There are many poles rated for a 200 lbs vaulter. First a vaulter of that size must work on their technique to ensure that he can use such a large pole. Then depending on the vaulters height and jump a vaulter can buy a 14' - 17' 7" that is rated for a 200 lbs vaulter. But a 14' 200 is not the same pole as a 16' 200. Please look up a pole size chart before picking the right size pole.
What are the basic rules of pole vault?
The vaulter may use a pole (under his/her wieght) to go over a cross bar. If the cross bar falls off before the vaulter is off the mat, it is counted as missed.

Which describes the relationship between potential and kinetic energy when a pole vaulter's pole has reached its maximum bend point?
When a pole vaulter's pole has reached its maximum bend point, the potential energy stored in the pole is at its maximum, as the pole is under high tension. At the same time, the kinetic energy of the pole vaulter is also increasing as they approach the release point. The potential energy stored in the pole is eventually converted into kinetic energy of the vaulter as they propel themselves over the bar.
