lol @ that little ball..

nice pics

I can jump a lot higher with that mini ball than without it... I just have a "purpose" to jump when I hold it.

ya i can't dunk for shit off the dribble, lose so much power from arm swing..

And the jumps were 36 inches for Nightfly at the slingshot attempt, 28 inches for me at the low rim, 31 inches for me at the high rim off one ... so ... you know...

how do you know those measurements? you're hangtiming? because those angles are very hard to tell exactly how high you're getting..

Yeah hangtiming it from the heel rise to the heel back on the ground (since the center of gravity rises when the heel rises, so you're basically "in air" when that happens). Also these numbers make sense so I guess they're right.

According to my study on that , that also seems to be wrong measurement:

Also note that the hangtime height calculation physics formula is for vertical displacement , when you put an angle to your orbit ( have horizontal displacement too ) the type is different , so or those calculators are wrong again.

Yeah I have no idea how that applies to a long jump. I mean, if you put all your power to jump in length there's still going to be a hangtime number... I have no idea of physics too well so I don't know.

Yes , there is some relevant discussion in this forum's calculator page:

I still owe a little study on that but keep forgetting it...
