jumping off right leg going pretty smoothly yesterday. was dunking 2 handed on 9'. i like 2 step approaches, especially from the right side of the baseline. it's helping me with the coordination.

« on: November 30, 2018, 07:08:20 pm »if the shoes consistently break, why on earth would you buy another pair?
well the second pair i had were free actually cause i returned them lol. but for me, my main reason is that the cushion is thick with little to no heel drop, and that cushion shields the callus in the bottom of my left fore foot from further enlarging due to friction. also because it just is a dope shoe too, like scooby said lol.

« on: November 30, 2018, 04:14:43 am »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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A bit of footage from today:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4p827aB4ltU
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.
