A vaulter is an athlete who competes in the pole vault event, a track and field discipline where the goal is to jump over a high bar using a pole for assistance. The vaulter runs towards the bar, plants the pole in a special box, and uses the pole’s energy to propel themselves into the air and clear the bar. Vaulters must have a combination of speed, strength, and technique to successfully clear higher heights. Their performance depends on their ability to time their jump, maintain control of the pole, and land safely on the mat.
