Today me and my friends went to a local elementry school and the basketball hoops were soo low 🙂 It was fun dunking..hahah....anyone actualy able to dunk on a regulation hoop?
 
My brother, myself, and some friends used to play at a court where the hoops were about 6 feet high, very easy to dunk since I am 6 feet. Heh.
 
On a 9 footer ............ barely dunk it. (a long time ago)

On a regulation 10 footer ........... no chance 😛

Cheers,

Back in the day I could grab the rim and hang no prob (single foot takeoff - touch rim with double foot) at five-seven 175 lbs. I used to play hoops all the time. Doing track (sprints) and plyometrics (specialized explosion training) I could get up there. It was fun on an 8 footer.

Once I got in the weightlifting and bodybuilding - forget it! Too heavy.
 
I can do it, unfortuneately I wuss out when trying to dunk(never been much of a basketball player). Every time I've done it I've hit myself with the ball which really sucks when your trying to concentrate on landing, and it's a pretty long drop. Some friends and I use to have jump contests, we'd stand directly under the rim and see who could hang on it without taking a step, I have no problem doing that, I'm about 6'1.
 
I could in high school and a couple years after high school . Not anymore though . Lost some weight lately and I can touch the rim again . I have a buddy who is 6'8" 220 # who can't even dunk .
 
i can, im 6'6" i can only do it on a run now but a few years ago i could do it standing under the rim. im trying to get back to the shape i was in then as i still like to play with my friends and other
