I've been thinking lately about what kind of dunks I'll do when I get my vertical high enough. I'm sure we've all done this; fantasized about how we'd dunk the ball if we were as tall or could jump as high as player X.
Well I'm a step ahead of you guys right now, because I've found someone who's dunking style reminds me of me. That's a pretty bold statement since he jumps WAY higher than I've ever done. BUT... back when I was 14 or 15 there was this court that had rims on the sidelines that were almost 9ft, and we'd have these dunk contests on them. I got to try out a wide array of dunks, windmills, 360s, elbow dunks, off the board, reverse dunks etc... The cool thing is that you kind of got a sense of what style everyone had. Well... mine was pretty similar to this guy's:
The one thing I'd say we really have in common, other than being almost the same height and having a similar build, is that his jumps all seem effortless. I've never been the type to run at full speed and then really blast off the floor to get to my max jumps. I don't jump like that. I'll give myself a few steps and then come in slowly and then jump. From the video I think you can tell what I'm talking about.
