Storing jump poles upright in arena corners?

@TheJenners, here’s what I would do. Closest to your gates (safely), regardless of the post spacing, I’d get a treated 2x6 long enough to span the OC of the posts. Screw that into the posts, at the same height as your flex rail so that it visually doesn’t look weird. Stain the wood rail to match the flex stuff. You can do both flex rails, both sides of the gate.

Then the world is your oyster on how you want to store the poles. Metal brackets, a wood bracket with a mitered end, etc. The flexrail is no longer the limiting factor.

This is what I would do too

Yes, but a disclaimer. My poles are octagons made from 4x4’s, stacked one flat face against the other. I don’t know how round poles would stack in the same space.

If I were storing jump poles made from PVC pipe, I’d add a third support. PVC sags and will take on a permanent bow over time. That’s why I quit using PVC jump poles.

Mine are same.

I messaged you a quick question

Schneiders jump holder mounting plates are 2 inches wide, Mounting holes are 1-1/4 inches apart on center. Distance between pole holders is 10-1/2 inches from the top of a lower one to the bottom of the one above it.
