I was just wondering what everyone's vertical was and if they can dunk or not. Don't forget to add your height so we can kinda get a visual image of your jumping ability. If you would like to know how to measure your vertical, click on site three. They do a good job of explaining and they have pictures.Here are some sites to stick in your vertical and see where you stack up with the rest of the country (the year these sites were done, I am not completely sure, so it may be a little different now).Site one.Site 2 - Not as good and you don't fill anything in.Site 3- Pretty good and this site explains how to measure your vertical jump.If you want to, you can use this format, but you don't have to:<div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'>Height:Vertical Jump (inches):Can you dunk:</div>As for me:Height: So close to 6'3" I can feel it.Vertical Jump (inches): Just 28". I am working my legs out to get higher.Can you dunk: Sadly no. I am very close and have only dunked once in my life. I can easily finger roll and grab the rim, but since I can't palm the ball, it is hard for me to do. I figure I just need an inch or two on my vertical to get it.Your turn.
I'm like 5'9"-5'10" and with one step my vert is in the low-mid 30's but just standing off two feet its not very good, probably 25-27", I've dunked once, but it was a weak dunk, that didnt go down perfectly clean, and it'll probably never happen again.
height - 5'6" (I'm 14)vertical jump - around 30" I believecan I dunk - obviously, no, but I can on 9 feet
Height: 5'8"Vertical Jump (inches): Don't know anymore. But I can touch rim.Can you dunk: Maybe with some sweat at the tip of my middle finger... I have a good dunk on a 9'6" rim [those adjustable rims].
Height: 5'10Vertical Jump (inches): No idea..Can you dunk: No, I can now dunk on 9 1/2..suprised me when I first threw it down..!
5'4"very badno way in hellFat white guys dont tend to jump to high, I got the white boy jumper though :dribble:

I have only had one good dunk in my life. Some of my friends say I dunk it more often than I say I can but I dont count the weak dunks as dunks. I only count the good ones so I am still sitting at 1. I also cannot palm the ball so a couple more inches on my vert and I will be having good dunks.
uh...I don't know my vertical. But I'm about 5"8, and I can touch around the middle/top area of the net when I jump my highest. I am pretty athletic. I can jump pretty high.

late last year I could reach the bottom of the rim. I was only 5'4 den and now im 5'5 or so (but my arms are long enough 4 me to scratch the top of my knee without bendin even a bit) but stopped workin my legs cause of too much stress on em and now I can only reach above half way up the net! my vertical now is like in the low 20s..
I really am not close right now but I think I may sprout up another couple inches before Im done growing. Right now im around 5'10 and I can touch rim on a good day but usually just the the bottom of the rim......that box underneath......ugh I forgot the name. Anyway yeah if I can keep growing I think I could maybe dunk one day.......atleast I hope.
