BAMBOO? How the hell old are you Man????
LOL......Even when I was in school they were aluminum but my school still had a couple of wood poles although neither was bamboo! I think by the time of the Helsinki Olympics most poles were aluminum. I think the fibergals came in the 60's as I recall Bob Seagren having great success with them. They truly did jump the record and today's carbon fiber poles gave it another 2 foot or so.
