explosion exercises will help your vertical leap. I have heard of an exercise called boxes, the object is to find a stable elevated platform to jump up on such as the first row of bleacher seats from the floor. Be careful while doing this exercise because it is dangerous. Another option which is safer is to practice with ankle weights so your body gets used to the extra weight and then remove the weights for a game and see what happens. \nThe best way to gain hieght is to work witha trainer who can design a program to fit your body size and needs.

1. Set your feet up like you would for an ollie.\n \n2. Place the ball of your front foot toward the middle of the board and slightly below the front bolts.\n \n3. Hit your tail as you would for an ollie, but instead of dragging your front foot up the board, drag it toward the side of the board with a flicking motion. The faster the flick, the faster the flip. It's all in the ankle.\n \n4. Stay over the board as you are jumping and the board is flipping (it's important not to push down on the board once you're up so that it can continue to rise).\n \n5. Let the board hit your back foot once it has flipped completely. This is called catching the flip. Your front foot should not be far behind in getting back on the board, but the back foot usually catches it first. This allows you to control the trick on the way down.\n \n6. Land with your feet as close to the bolts as possible.\n \n7. Do another one.

Couple of things...\n\n1) Jump rope...a lot\n2) Get under a basket, and jump up as high as you can for 20-25 reps, keeping both hands raised while you jump. Do this several times a day.  After a couple of weeks, you'll find yourself jumping higher and higher.  You can use the net or the backboard to guage your progress. That's the purpose of doing it under a basket.\n\nThese will strengthen your legs and improve your stamina.\n\nIf you have a coach, ask him/her about some other ways to improve your jumping. Or ask a gym teacher at your school. They'll be glad to help you.

Start by standing on a box, or bleacher steps, preferably with another box or platform a few feet in front of you.  Jump off and when you land on the floor, immediately jump up again onto the box or platform.\nThis essentially "pre-loads" your calf muscles (gastrocnemius and soleus muscles).\nIt's called "plyometrics".  Easy does it at first!\nLook on the web for more plyometric exercises.\nGood luck on your future dunks!

dont kick it, push it up. move your foot up quickly then pull it back down and around, you'll get the hang of it. my biggest problem while learning it was catching soft enough on the way down, make sure you go pretty straight upwards.

STEP 1: Stand on the board with your rear foot placed on the tail and your front foot between the middle of your board and the front bolts.\nSTEP 2: Place the ball of your rear foot in the middle of the board so that when you push the tail down, the ball of your foot feels the pressure.\nSTEP 3: Place your front foot nearly straight across the board.\nSTEP 4: Practice pushing down as fast as you can with your back foot and putting all your weight on the tail. This is the initial motion of the trick.\nSTEP 5: Notice that the harder you push, the more your board wants to keep going up once the tail is on the ground. You will use that motion in the next step.\n\nSTEP 6: Strike the tail on the ground and jump off with your rear foot as you slide your front foot up the board (so your knee moves toward your chest).\n\nSTEP 7: Drag the side of your foot up the board as you are jumping. This will cause the board to come up with your jump. Once both feet are in the air, the board will seem to stick to them.\nSTEP 8: Come back down.\nTips & Warnings\n\nLearn this trick without rolling at first to get comfortable with the motions. Once you feel comfortable with the basics, you will be able to adapt to moving and going up or down things.\nThe hardest part is the timing of when to push down on the tail, when to jump, and how quickly to suck up your legs. The secret: It's all done at the same time. The faster you do it, the easier it becomes. Think about jumping off with one foot and sucking your legs up to your chest.\nSkateboarding is an inherently dangerous activity that can result in serious injury or death. We recommend that you seek proper training and equipment before attempting this activity.

An exercise I know of works very well, and it also has a lot of names. Some people call it "foot fire" or "quick feet". It works really well in a group, where someone is standing in front of you calling out what to do next. You stand in your defense position while stepping up and down very quickly, like you are stepping on coals. You should periodically jump so you are facing to the right or left of where you were facing before. The leader person should also tell you to slap the quickly hit the ground and continue the "foot fire".

If you're really a pro, your team should have a staff of physicians and trainers to help you, so why are you asking a bunch of cyber strangers?\n\nMy son's trainer has them do jumps where they propel themselves forward, as well as the typical vertical leaping.  You might also want to do some lunges (forward, side and rear) favoring the left, if that's weaker than the right.

Go somewhere with those outdoor tables with the attached bench (like in the lunch areas at schools). Then jump up on the bench, then up to the table, then down on the bench on the far side, then down to the ground. Turn around, and repeat. Do this as much as you can, and then work to increase how much you can do it.
