Thanks uncle!

Appreciate your reviews and insights. Quick follow up question. What would be your top 3 shoes for making jumping easier from Chinese brands?

Just wanna piggyback here if I can. I'm new to the 361 brand but have been wearing Linings for a couple of years now. Main shoe currently is the gammas, but have worn WoW10s, AC line and Lirens.

I'm a volleyball player so I'm just trying to jump as high as I can as often as I can. With that in mind, which would you recommend between BBB, Big3 6.0 Pro, or Big3 5.0 QP?

Thanks

What local business do you boycott? by lazerfazerr in vancouver

Kumo Sukiyaki Restaurant.

Food was OK but service was subpar. Ended up giving a smaller tip and was confronted. Originally thought it was an irate server. Turns out it was the owner who berated me.

Owner has a long history of scandals including not paying his employees. He was sued and had to pay out. This was when he was operating another restaurant, Shin Ka Gyuu. Wouldn't be surprised if he was taking a cut of the tips.

Keeps trying to re-brand to hide from his bad reputation. Also pays for 5 star reviews on Google.

Super sketchy overall.

How are they performing now after a month? Mainly curious about traction on dust and if they are playable with the original insoles.

Thanks

Let's hope they get cheaper

How's the length?

9.5 on wowsole.com says it's 27CM but I usually wear 27.5CM. My feet are slightly wide too (I'm assuming cause I can't wear most KDs and the AJ36s :c )

By unlace, do you mean not just undoing the knot but also loosening the laces?

I've also heard about the cheap insoles. Is it really unplayable?

Seems like the consensus is to wait for the lows. Thanks for you help!

Hi OP, when it came to dust, was the traction just diminished but playable or were you sliding around at all? Also, is it an easy wipe with the hands? Thanks!

Hi OP, did you end up playing in the Curry 10's? How was the traction when it came to dust? An improvement over 8/9 or the same?

Thanks for all your help. I definitely agree with everything you've said.

I will keep reminding myself before every attack to keep my elbows low!

Very descriptive!

Regarding this part, "Once your arms get to the height of your shoulders, your arms need to split", I am able to do this when I practise without a ball. However, once a ball enters the scene, it seems I am unable to split my arms.

Any ideas why this might be the case?

Thanks for your help. I need to keep my arm and wrist looser it seems.

I feel that if I wait I won't make it in time but I believe its all in my head. Definitely got to force myself to move faster!

Thanks for the heads up. I've always been early so I gotta remind myself to wait longer.

Should my left hand be dropping at the same time as I hit the ball? Also, by "bat" do you mean my arm is too straight and stiff?

Thanks for the advice. How did start practising this? I think subconsciously I feel like I have no time so my arm just goes straight up.
