Made In Nevada: UCS Spirit - KOLO8 ABC News
Published by
Made In Nevada: UCS Spirit - KOLO8 ABC News MINDEN, Nev. (KOLO) - What are said to be the best poles in the world for pole vaulting are made in Minden. The last world record was made on a pole constructed at UCS Spirit in Carson City. Olympic French champion Renaud Lavillenie set this record in Ukraine in February 2014. He used a pole made in northern Nevada to jump and clear a pole sitting 20 feet, 2-and-a-half inches high. He broke the record that was set 20 years earlier. This world record was made possible in part because of the work inside UCS Spirit's factory.
