did a few dunks on camera, got a standing dunk viid too if you want me to upload it...here a running jump test: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ShvUGDFKSc

very nice, can you come in on a curve though? it'll help you break that horizontal momentum and turn it into a bit more vertical.. jump looked high though.

Explaining more what helping what you mean...like a high jumper running path??

since i had this vid open, i'll use this, kinda like that..

check the slow mo, see how that small curve is causing me to plant in 'rotation' and really get me going VERY vertical.. i hardly go horizontal at all really.. very minimal.. the force absorbed/produced is pretty much all contributing to going vertical, that's how my weak ass gets up a little better than i should be getting lol.

you're coming in from straight away it looks like, just a pure bilateral plant, you're not really sinking into the plant and really absorbing all of that runup speed, which will allow you to produce more force.. just something to mess around with, you're basically just murdering the ground to get up, if you come in quick on a bit more of a curve, you'll absorb more force AND still murder the ground.. absorbing more force will allow you to produce more.

hope that helps, just incorporate more of those if you're not already.. you're heavily strength trained so your body is going to try and force you into a linear-bilateral-plant, so just get in a few curve runup/jumps each session to get your NEUROPHYSIOLOGIEZ to start adjusting/adaptating to that style.

peace man

OK man, I'll try, thanks for the explination. I'm a little confused to be honest, But watching your vid I see your path is definatley not a strait away like mine.
