Athletic Propulsion Labs<\/a>“.\u00a0 That’s a pretty cool name.\u00a0 Well APL was started by 2 brothers (Adam and Ryan Godston)\u00a0who’s dad and friends worked in the sneaker business for the big companies\u00a0and the boys played basketball for USC.\u00a0\u00a0APL created a sneaker technology called “load and launch” which is supposed to make you jump higher.<\/p>\nWell, the NBA decided to ban the shoe.\u00a0 I know what you are thinking . . . those bastards!\u00a0 Not so fast.\u00a0 When you think of what it must cost to get one of those spoiled super athletes to smile and hold your shoe, well, it’s not for the little guy.\u00a0 What if the organization of these super athletes said “your shoe is so much better than these expensive fancy shoes we already have we are not going to let our players use them – it would be like cheating, an unfair advantage”.\u00a0 Now what do you think of the NBA ban?\u00a0 How many shoes do you think NBA players buy a year?\u00a0 That’s right, exactly the same number of zeppelins I buy a year.![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.athleticpropulsionlabs.com\/media\/upload\/image\/apl_technology_photos.jpg\" "\\"you")

What kid wouldn’t want an “unfair advantage” while they are playing for their college, high school, middle school or on the\u00a0playground?\u00a0 That’s right, it’s the big zepplin number again.\u00a0 I think you can only buy them online right now but how long do you think that will last?\u00a0 Every shoe store in the world is going to want to yell – get your rocket launchers here, you can have shoes better the Lebron James’s.<\/p>\n
