Camulus had potential, but it seems it was squandered.
Perhaps they were hampered by the only women present that he could direct hottitude toward not being the sort that would buy into a charming enemy's line of BS?
Spike: Lots of fuss over one girl. Other things to do around here--important things. Angel: You know that whoosh thing you do when you're suddenly not there anymore? I love that.

ita, what does this mean:
He holds an Advanced Level Stage Fighting certificate.
And is pole vaulting a dorky sport? It is an Olympic Event (but then I saw Trampolene at the Olympics this time round):
Represented Wales in the national club finals for pole vaulting.
(Two more tidbits from PW's Imdb bio.)

No way! Pole vaulters are some of the best atheletes around. They have to have sprinter speed, the upper body strength and control of a gymnast and incredible coordination.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
And just imagine what they could accomplish if they were to land on a trampoline after their jumps instead of that big pad.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I like the trampoline thing because it's fun and not mainstream, yet requires agility. The convetional athlete thing? Also yum.
He holds an Advanced Level Stage Fighting certificate.
It's a British certification for theatrical combat. I'm not sure if there's an American equivalent.

New sport! TrampolVault!
It needs a third element to be like the Triple Jump. Maybe they finish with a dive into a pool? Or perhaps Trampoline Judo?

I think they should grab a stage sword on the way up, and land fighting.

The bounce off the trampoline could lead into a mount on the uneven parallel bars. Or through a flaming ring if you wanted to add a more showy Seaworld dolphins act sort of element.

I think they should land on a horse, then go straight into a steeplechase. Or maybe a dressage routine. That way you can factor in equestrian skills aswell.
