—What this is
Not motivation.
Proof
I grew up in Encinitas, trained every day, and became the top pole vaulter in California. I commited to UCLA before I turned 18. While doing that, I ran a student government of 2,000 people, got appointed to a city government role by the City Council, and built a content brand to 100 million views.
My
story.
I'm Dylan Yarbrough — D1 UCLA athlete, founder, and the 18-year-old who goes where most people won't.
I help athletes get recruited, people build real connections, and anyone serious about leveling up actually do it — not just think about it.
"You can't half-step a vault.
You either go or you don't."
I've been pole vaulting since I was a kid. I became the top ranked pole vaulter in California, set the San Diego County Sophomore Record, won the CIF San Diego Section Championship, and committed to UCLA, all before graduating high school.
But the sport was never the whole story. While competing at an elite level I was elected ASB President of a 2,000+ student high school, appointed Youth Commissioner by the City of Encinitas City Council, and recognized by the U.S. Congress, California State Senate, California State Assembly, and the Mayor of Encinitas.
I built a digital brand to 100M+ views, founded The Pole Vault Club, scaling it to 10K+ followers and 400+ Discord members, and launched coaching, apparel, and digital content from scratch. All in high school.
I'm headed to UCLA in the fall to study Business Economics and compete in Division I Track & Field. Everything I'm building is happening right now, in real time.
