If you take James White in the Turkey dunk contest, he's with his head at the square at some point, jumping from the free throw line. Angle helps big time
If ARowe would work to get more speed and "nerve" into his jump he'd jump so much higher. Right now it's like a 100% strength generated jump... very little bounce... he doesn't take advantage of that runup accumulation.
Yeah I just don't understand how these guys do it. I mean, they don't look like they can squat 3x or anything, yet they find a way to fly... doesn't make sense.
To me, the differences are like 2 inches in SVJ vs RVJ off two feet... probably a technique thing as well, I have no idea. It doesn't make sense though, especially as I have long legs and I am a natural reactive, one-leg jumper. I think I just load my muscles weird/wrong off two feet, and my body position is not good.
Well good job. You need to have your mind set that you're going to grab and hold on that rim. If you're not sure about that it's best not to try grabbing it at all.
