Pole vault boxes for pole vault

Pole vault: the most technically demanding discipline in athletics

The positioning of the pole in the pole vault box is part of the jump and is one of the crucial elements of a jump. It takes place in the so-called pole vault box, which is located in the floor in front of the pole vault mat. The athlete lifts the pole during his start and lowers the end of the pole into the pole vault box. As a result the athlete can bend the pole and will then get catapulted upwards.


Dimensions of a pole vault box

The pole vault box is located in front of the pole vault mat and the crossbar. It is level with the run-up track and has soft upper edges. According to the requirements of the international competition rules, a pole vault box must be 1.00 m long (measured along the inside) and 60cm wide at the front, tapering down to 15cm. The angle between the floor and the bulkhead must be 105 °, the outer walls lean outwards at a 120 ° angle. The vertical depth of the pole vault box must be 20 cm.
