Check out this bad boy I rigged up today from left-over decking wood and bolts. It starts at about 3m (or a 28'' jump from my standing reach (230cm)) and goes up to 36'.









I love it already, just working on getting the tension right between the targets (the hardest bit by far)

what happens when your jump passes 36"?

Haha I don't expect my SVJ to be 36'' anytime soon but I think I'll just unscrew the bolts at the top, drill some new holes and move the target bracket a few inches up when the time comes (and it will come  :headbang:)

Wow that vertec is nice lol.  You built the whole thing by yourself?
Goal is to dunk.

Vertical needed to dunk: 40"

Current vertical : 38.5"
