2022 Doha DL

[aaronk]

All made the opening height (5.41), except Mondo, who passed.
Valentin LaV needed 3 tries!
Now jumping at 5.61.

Is the PV taking place today then?

Is it the only event today? I think it originally said May 13-14 on the TFN schedule, even before the PV reschedule.

[aaronk]

Karalis, Vloon, and Walsh go out at 5.61.
Other 7 move to 5.71!

no, the 14 was added yesterday

Mondo on Big-Boy pole now, cleared 19 by 2' (do the math).

Nilsen is looking sluggish - no pop off the ground.
The others are struggling too. If it's only Mondo left, does he yank it straight to 6.21 or do 6 first? I think the latter.

Is the roof high enough he won't hit it with his rear end???
LOL

It's down to MONDO---all others out!!
But this is INdoors, so he'll need 6.21 to get the INdoor WR!

[Atticus]

The answer is 6.02.

Not sure he follows your blog . . .

Easily over 6.02!

Choosing 6.11 next (?). Now shows 6.12. A mere 20'1.
Pick 6.22 next! An even 20'5.
Then 6.25 - Twenty and a half feet.

Wow! Super-high over the bar, but came down on it.

Choosing 65m for the standards, which might be shallow for him, but medium-deep for most - needs more penetration.

They're listing his 6.02 as a Meet Record!
I don't believe Doha's DL has ever done the Men's PV INdoors before!!

You push my buttons, I'll push yours!!
LOL

Watching Vloon bail that last jump reminds me how infrequently these guys break crossbars, a regular occurrence (twice a season) at the HS level, not uncommon at collegiate level.

I've seen it happen more than once in a single competition at low-level club meets in the UK, where some guys are struggling to get over (I won't say vault!) 2m.

Man! He must be on one soft pole!
