Mondo Duplantis is the rock star of our sport. The 2020 Olympic champion, 2019 World Champ silver medalist, 2018 European champion, and he is just alot of fun to watch jump. Mondo loves what he does, and he works hard at it.
He will be opening this 2022 season in Karlsruhe. The Indoor Meeting, held in a sporthalle in Karlsruhe features about 4,500 German fans in a very intimate setting. I visited the meet in 2019 and truly enjoyed the event. A fun crowd, entertaining announcing and focused meet, plus German beer and pretzels are sold at the food stands!
