I Decided To Create A Sports Club

The Strategy Of My Coach And Me Was That We Looked At Pictures Of All The Best Pole Vaulters From Around The World, And We Took The Best Parts From Them, And We Created A Person That Had Never Existed. We Then Started To Work Toward Being Such A Person.

Even Now, I Want To Keep My Amateur Spirit, To Spend My Time, To Be In The Sport With All My Heart.

I Began With Track And Field Because This Is What I Know.

I Decided To Create A Sports Club During The Soviet Times. It Was My Dream.

I Am Alone, Some People Help Me, But, Basically, I Can Do What I Want.
