oh my lawd the sound effects on this one 💯💯💯 😂

I can’t imagine the amount of work you put into this, but man, this is the best “how to” jump tutorial I’ve ever seen. The visuals and breakdown made me realize why I jump the way I do (bucked and front end heavy). Going to apply this to my next time out on the jump line. Probably asking for too much, but it would be neat if you did a “how to” drop tutorial in the same fashion.
