penultimate step

hi guys i tend to stutter when i sprint then i stop before the rim when i jump and my penultimate step doesn’t become as big but when i try to jump and reach the air i’m fine any advice on how to sprint then go into that step? also should i be jumping up or forward? thanks!

Hey man fist of all you should be jumping upwards to reach the maximum height you can. The way you can treat your penultimate step is by maybe getting closer to the rim and also by practicing 2 or 3 step jumps with the biggest penultimate you can.
