kd 9 will pop
I poped  pair already
This is my 2nd pair

i have a 3rd pair (elite) version in standby mode..
This shoes is dope... but very bouncy.

my friend had one that been used indoor also poped...

so... i guess..eventually it will pop no matter what.

oh i see, thanks for letting me know. yea i love the KD as a shoe, but mainly because i have a callus on the bottom of my left foot and the forefoot cushioning is thick enough to not cause friction to it and further enlarge it.

so i guess we both bought 3 pairs, except i've already popped two of them. i think i'm gonna buy 2 more pairs, 1 normal and 1 elite version. after that i'm going to move onto the KD 10. apparently the traction on those are less durable, so it may mean it'll pop even faster than the 9. will have to wait and see though.

just surprised myself going off two feet RL plant. was able to touch 10'2 off 1 step pretty easily, and was using my left hand too.

nice!!

thanks. yea, thinking i should probably concentrate on my RL plant now. but at the same time i still wanna work hard on my 1 foot.

hello, was just wondering if the bubble on your KD 9's ever pop? mine did twice, and now i just bought my third pair. it was the left shoe both times, i'm guessing because of planting right-left i push off the left foot and there's more friction.

also nice work on rim 3. i liked the lowest rim(rim 1?) the most though because it was of course easiest to dunk on and it was the only rim that could snap back lol.

35
got in dunks on 9' off 1 foot off both legs. left knee is completely healthy, right knee i have concern of. fortunately i can just stick to jumping off my left leg the moment i feel any twinge of pain my right knee.

36
left leg holding up well and compatible with going off 1 foot. just going to keep stretching my right quad hard, and hopefully eventually i'll be able to jump off of it pain free.

37
ok scratch that, just got some minor pain again in my right knee jumping today. nvm, gonna go back to the left knee which has been fine.

38
will be focusing exclusively on 1 foot off my right leg now. really don't want quadricep tendonitis to flare up at all like it did on my left knee back in 2015, so will be super super careful.

39
focusing almost exclusively on 1 foot off right leg now.

no SL-L anymore? still playing it safe?

i wish i enjoyed dunking on lower rims.. fml. kinda miss it. ;f

actually my left leg has completely recovered, it's completely safe now to jump 1 foot off of it. it's actually my right knee that started giving me a bit of pain towards the end of last year which i'm now playing it safe with.

and yea, it's a lot of fun.

here's a few right leg dunks too:

A bit of footage from today:

drop step dunks from both plants on a rim i set to the second highest notch, which I think is either 9'7 or 9'8. not jumping as high as i did a couple years ago, but i definitely still am really good off of a really short approach.

43
bunch of low rim dunking done at the gym yesterday, pretty sore waking up.

for the last couple of years i've been torn on whether to go off 1 foot or 2 foot, which plant to use, and even whether to go off left or right. my solution now is just to do them all lol.

44
wondering if i should give up always trying to maintain being above 150 lbs and just be super skinny again. also wondering if i should concentrate on going off 1 foot if i do too, given that 1 foot jumping is less reliant on having good muscle mass

45
no more jumping off right leg until i start deadlifting again and consistently stretch out my right quad to correct the quad dominance  :(
