Pole vault is one of the most biomechanically complex disciplines in athletics. It requires a high level of motor skills such as speed, strength, coordination and flexibility from pole vaulters. In addition to motor skills, pole vaulting also requires a high level of mental preparedness. The pole vaulter must perform the run up with high speed and control, place the pole in the planting box and transfer the energy he has developed in the pole as efficiently as possible. After effective take-off, the pole bends and the pole vaulter has to place himself in an optimal position so that he can make the best use of the pole's extension to reach the maximum height. In this paper, 14 parameters were analyzed in order to determine the most important ones for pole vault. The results from the pole vault final from the 2017. World Championships in London were processed. The analysis of the parameters showed that there is no significant correlation between the parameters of the run up and take-off with the final result in the pole vault. The analysis showed a pattern of movement in some parameters such as the length of the last step where almost 90% of pole vaulters in the final have a shorter last step than the penultimate one. In addition, the paper failed to determine the direct relationship of a particular parameter or pattern of movement with the result. The main reason for this is the complexity of the discipline in which the end result depends on several different combinations of kinematic parameters and characteristics of the anthropological status of the athlete. Each pole vaulter has a unique way of running, jumping and handling the pole and it is therefore impossible to determine the effect of a single parameter on the result. In order for pole vault to be successful, we must not look for one isolated parameter that we want to fix or develop, but we must look at pole vault as a totality of the athlete's abilities, knowledge and dynamic stereotypes of movement.
