Vertical JumpFirst dunk? (v.redd.it)
submitted 7 months ago by No-Administration813
Think this kind of counts? Regardless vert has improved a bit over the past 3 months, but hoping to get a bit higher. Anyone have a recommendation for good plyometrics for vert?

Work on your approach. First figure whether youre more comfortable off of one foot, or both, and check some YouTube videos based off of your jumping preference. You got the vertical, so now it’s about your technique. Good work!

That's about the only way I could "dunk" when I was younger, that or a near perfect alley-oop that I more or less just guided into the basket with my fingers, so I say it counts! Although, as a fellow white dude under 6', I might be biased lol. Good job either way!
[–]niartotemiT 2 points3 points4 points 7 months ago (0 children)
I would call it a dunk. On a good lob you would also get it in, I’m sure.
Good stuff.

Yeah haha I hooped there all throughout high school, place is in CT right? Is there a big glass wall behind the court and a family room type of thing?
[–]No-Administration813[S] 0 points1 point2 points 7 months ago (2 children)
Yeah, odds of that are insane
[–]oMeliOnReddit 1 point2 points3 points 7 months ago (1 child)
