you're reaching for the rim on dj's right?
Wrong!
I do DJs in my house , and the ceiling is low ( about 8'6'' ) so all i can do is head-height jumps.
cool, ya video analysis would be best.. i remember seeing some really weird vert measuring device, which hooked some kind of tape measurer to your waist, but i don't see how that could work due to horizontal displacement.. was odd, need to find the link for it again one day, i've never seen anyone use it anywhere.
Went to the gym today just to move around some, roll a lot and stretch a lot.
Shoot hoops x 20-25 mins -- money in the bank, shorty whatcha drank. Could not miss.
EDIT: Interspersed were ~15 DLRVJs -- best was about 30.5", most 29.5-30, pretty weak, was thinking about the runup too much
jump rope incl double unders practice -- totaled about 50 double unders and a bunch more stuff
row x 2000m, easy if inconsistent pace, ~8:30
SMR x25-30 mins
stretch x15 mins
Felt nice.

Unfortunately, I only have an audio and still pics...but in order to provide "proof" that I'm actually the one in the vid, I've included a "review" http://www.cvnc.org/reviews/2004/may/RSOFuture.html from the classical voice of nc...I'm mentioned briefly in the 3rd to last paragraph; they misspell my name as Sreeniker Ram instead of Sreeniket Ram, lol...
Thought I would post this here because this is a huge achievement for me, 2+ years in the making.
The rim outside is ~9'8. When I first started training for vert in late summer of 2008 I could not even touch the 9'8 rim, I was probably about 3-4 inches away. So now,over 2 years later, I have thrown down my first dunks on that rim so it is a huge deal to me. It seems surreal to me that I am less than 4 inches away from dunking on a 10' rim. Before I started training for vert I could only get about the top knot on the net.
Vert for indoor session is probably about 33", outdoor session was at least 34" I would say, but not positive.<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2BxQxI8s08" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2BxQxI8s08</a>
Special thanks to adarq for all the help with training, wouldn't be getting up this high without him. Also thanks to everyone on here who has encouraged me.
GO GET IT
Well yeah, he's kind of right... I so want to make a similar blog entry but I delayed so much...
That video is fucking sick, man!
11 October 2010
Soreness: none
Injuries/aches : none
Plyos session.
- Dynamic warmup 10'
-4x10sec bilateral line hops ( 2 left-right / 2 back-forth )
-4x5 MR tuck jumps
-2x5 27'' depth drops
-2x5 18'' depth jumps
MR tuck jumps were better in terms of shin stress , but thats beause i did 4x5 instead of 3x10
Depth drops were much improved , great FA and very smooth too.
DJs more or less the same with last time , gotta start filming those to track performance.
10-10-10 and 10-11-10
Tennis ball dunks on indoor 10' are on 10-10-10, outdoor dunks on 9'8 are on 10-11-10.
Dunks on 10' I wasn't getting up my highest, they were probably 33". The dunks on 9'8 I was getting up a lot better, if the rim is 9'8 it looks like I was getting my whole hand an inch above it which would be 34.5" but idk, hard to tell.

I just dreamed that adarqui came in Romania, while me and Nightfly were searching for an apartment near a gypsy ghetto... there were a TON of gypsies outside talking crap while we were around browsing, only to find out that my ex-teacher (classes 1-4) was in supervising the projects...
Then adarqui came in, I don't remember what we talked about though... it started to fade away after I woke up. I think it was something about boxing, oh yeah - we met one weird violent, crazy guy - and I was like "hey you need to go train in boxing" and he was like "really, you think so? did you box?" so adarqui was "right... tell him (at least we can get rid of him)" so I recommended that guy to join "the only boxing gym around".
It was really weird. The conclusion was that "now I can come visit Florida, right"
PS. The reason why I dreamed "about" adarqui was because I just browsed through his facebook account yesterday evening, viewed some pictures (yes, it was limited to that, don't worry) etc.
