ya i was just showing that to a bunch of people, looks pretty legit to me, i don't see much camera angle at all other than it being crooked, that shit is unreal..

judging from darlington's reaction, it had to have been near PR level for him.. i don't see him get that excited usually..

:)

x2
camera angle is legit and darlington is always chilled even after doing even the craziest dunks , he went bananas on this!

Some rough estimations : whole head above rim = 12'' above rim MINIMUM , looks like he is neck height and leaning down too , so it should be like 15''.
10' - 6'4'' = 44''
So if thats a 10' rim and he is 6'4'' that was 56'' minimum , probably 59'' is more realistic...
WTF??? Im dizzy now...

As for the weights , i wanted to tell you all the time lately but i kept forgetting it:
I think you should do some MSEM shit! :D
Its not strength training , its performance enhancement. You would fly with their stim/power effect , and you of all people are the most fanatic MSEM fan!
So cmooon , dont be narrow minded , get under the bar ;)

it's not like i don't think about it every day :)

i've kind of been wanting too again, but, im going to ride no weights for a longer time.. it's that 'addiction feeling' creeping back in, i can't have that on my mind !! i'm going to keep going hard with no plans of touching weights, because even though i don't feel that 'stim' that i had from msem/lifting, my body does feel alot better and my hamstring tendon is less beaten down by what im doing, although the pmghr's are stressing it a bit.

but ya i have to keep 'weights' off of my brain in order to make 'no-weights' work :D

peace man

Yes , i was absolutely sure its exactly like that!
I just thought that if it wasnt you that decided to go back to lifting but someone else "convincing" you , you would allow yourself to do it. Plus the MSEM "trick" , which is not traditional lifting.
Hah , both tricks failed , strong personality!
No more weights talking , youre having awesome progress without them anyway , probably will be there by August again...  ;D

obviously some cam angle since im to the left of the rim SLIGHTLY, but i did throw this down nasty (miss):




Damn , when i saw that pic my jaw dropped , then i read that youre between cam and rim.
Still , trying to normalize the distortion and watching the other pics too , i think all those jumps are 11'' to 12'' above.
So its 34 to 35 consistent , thats no joke at all!!!  :o
