How does a pole vault pit help manage the forces created when an athlete lands from height?
In this episode of the Gill1918 Project Podcast, Mike Cunningham explains the design considerations and safety-focused evaluations behind modern pole vault landing systems.
The conversation covers:
Why foam is the heart of the landing system
The balance between comfortable landings and preventing bottoming out
Landing-surface consistency across multiple pit sections
Seam, gap, top pad, and attachment-system design
Why vinyl construction and weather protection affect long-term performance
The difference between meeting minimum requirements and maintaining a safe facility
Why regular inspection, repair, installation, and storage matter after the pit arrives
A landing system’s original design matters—but its condition over time matters just as much.
The full article, “How Are Pole Vault Pits Tested for Safety?” is available through Gill Athletics and Mike Cunningham’s LinkedIn article series.
