Abstract
A pivoting or collapsible pole vault cross bar pin is disclosed herein. Specifically, the pin includes a base that is mountable to the pole vault standard or upright stanchion, and a support arm. The support arm is spring-biased and disposable between an operative, extended position and a collapsed, pivoted position. When in the extended position, the support arm or pin assembly is structured to support a cross bar thereon, such as a cross bar used in a pole vaulting track and field event. Upon sufficient impact, the support arm will collapse or pivot in a downward direction, thereby releasing the cross bar and minimizing potential injury to an athlete, either by avoiding a violent impact with the cross bar or the pin assembly, itself.
