I hope this will get noticed here being that no one has posted in this thread for awhile, but what do you guys think of this system?

http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11376352

It's a vertical jump training system that uses elastic cords that you hook to a belt on your torso that hook down to your ankles.  Jack Woodrup actually suggested using something similar to this to supplement a vertical program in his free training guide.  I can see how it could help with explosion because of the resistance, but do you think it would actually be worth purchasing just to supplement my program on non-lifting days?
