Gang,
I saw the meet on Universal Sports. Big L had his unsual good day. Not so for Hooker. Did anyone else notice that Hooker was jumping on a UCS Spirit Pole? I thought he was a Giil guy. Just a thought...
Cheers,

He runs faster in slow motion than most people I know do in real time.
Does he purposely drop his drive knee, or is that a "defect" in his technique?

Got a feeling no one but him and his coach know for sure what he is trying to do. But I got a feeling he mainly focuses on running really fast, going upside down on really big poles, and launching off that thing like a rocket!

I have heard from a bunch of people that Hooker is now on UCS poles, his next competition is in Leverkusen Germany this Saturday. Going to be a good competition, here's the site.
