	2006/03/30, 04:15 AM that's a load of bs...he's their sales rep or something... check powerlifting forum...there's at least one topic on 1st page titled 'vertical' you can boost your vertical by lot by heavy squatting, deadlifting, power cleaning, jerks, etc....as well as plyometric programs....I would generally avoid hyped up programs that involve sites like the other psoted listed or buy jump shoes or other bs....it's all garbage....buyer beware....and the results won't happen overnight.....

By the way, it just so happens I've got the remaining supply and I could possibly be persuaded to let some go for as little as say...oh, I don't know...15 bucks.
