Pole VaultsThe Pole vault is the most technical of Athletic events. In this event, a long, flexible pole is used as aid to leap over a bar. The bar is kept on a certain height supported by two upright stands. The jumper has to cross the bar without knocking it down. The landing area is covered with solid pieces of foam usually 1-1.5m thick, minimizing any chances of injury.

Historical View
Poles were used as practical means of crossing over the natural obstacles such as marshy provinces, in Netherlands. Pole jumping events were known to ancient Greeks. Competitive pole vaulting started with bamboo poles. Modern competitions started around 1850 in Germany.
