He can do an underneath the legs dunk from the foul line and windmill from the foul line http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pA4L-_Wic78
No, no it isnt. What would race have anything to do with jumping ability?
There are plenty of black guys, Asian, Mexican etc...the same height that are just as non athletic as you.
What held me back in basketball was that I wasn't that athletic, laterally I couldn't move side to side fast enough and that hurt me. At the same time, I can still dunk in between my legs, rock the cradle, windmill etc.. Im only 6'3'' with a 6'3'' wing span. I cant palm a basketball and I got like a 25'' vert.
Keep jumping. It's muscle memory. Jump jump jump.
Who knows how much you can gain, I couldn't tell you really, Ive never really worked out for jumping. Ive never lifted weights with my legs all I do is jump. The more I jumped, the higher I got.
I know calf raises, pylos, and things like that will help.
There are a million jump programs out there, I am sure one of them is bound to work.
I'm 5' 8" and can get rim.. if only I was taller
