Title: Adam Linkenauger jumping form video series

http://www.higherverticalnow.com/ (http://www.higherverticalnow.com/) , you must give your email to access the main page.

There is a good long video from A-Link there , analyzing jumping form.
Its mostly technique for SLRVJ , the 2 real examples are also 1-foot jumpers , but he insists many points are the same for 2-foot jumpers too.
It also looks like its gonna be a 4-vids series there , released gradually.

Sure worth a look , let me know what you guys think...

Yeah, I saw it earlier, it had some nice info in it and I liked his graphical analysis. Everything he said about their technique was pretty solid.. as far as double leg jumping goes, I think there is ALOT more variability in the runup/plant that is acceptable for max jumping, ie, so many different plants/plant depths, rotation, and level of lean etc.

peace

I'm still jumping better with a longer last step... I guess it just developed over time. So does Adarqui's boy Eddie if I remember right.

yup definitely.. forgot to even mention that but it was on my mind.. eddie jumped way better using a longer last step, he was strong enough to do it, it seems.. as his hips did sink a bit.. so he basically got rebound + alot of concentric strength in his SLRVJ, instead of mostly rebound..

im going to sleep, damn.. im very tired haha.

why do i jump better with a  long last step if im not strong?

Probably because you're even less reactive/you're not yet aware of how to use a shorter last step/you learned to reach out to the rim from basketball.

Well, ask Adam. Probably a good way for implementing that over time is the pen drill (by the way - any idea why it's named the "pen" drill?).

bcuz it trains the penultimate step

you just have to practice it, alot, using proper drilling.
