PUMA athlete Mondo Duplantis has soared to yet another pole vault world record, jumping a gravity-defying 6.30m to take home a third consecutive gold at the World Athletics Championships.

Having already broken the world record three times this year, the Swede stepped onto the runway in front of a packed Japan National Stadium to make it four for good measure, redefining what is humanly possible in the pole vault.

Wearing his signature PUMA EvoSPEED Naio NITRO™ Elite spikes, and with cool-headed confidence, the 25-year-old made history look routine. Again. Turning centimeters into milestones with an unmistakable ease.

Despite being the most competitive men’s pole vault field ever, it was PUMA athletes that swept the podium, with Greece’s Emmanouil Karalis (6.00m) and Australia’s Kurtis Marschall (5.95m) taking home silver and bronze medals.

The results evidence PUMA’s position as trailblazers of track and field innovation, and pioneers of the future of fast.
