Air Up There Completes the 720 Dunk Once Again
Just over a year ago, And 1 Mix Tape baller Air Up There completed the first known 720-degree dunk only to disappear -- at least from my radar -- for the 12 months that followed. Seems that he, like Billy Hoyle before him, was unable to replicate the near-impossible feat that put him on the map in the first place.
Unlike Billy Ho', his repeat attempts were not futile. Air Up There done did it again, ripping off a 720 last week in the Ball 4 Real tour in Detroit. Considering the time that passed between these two rim rockers, color me and Sidney Deane impressed.
And bravo to Mik Rock and NinjaDude for shooting and editing that clip. The best YouTube videos have a) an eye-opening occurrence b) great crowd reaction and c) respect for brevity. Check, check and check, my friends. Well done.
