Larry,
As you k now I ain't the tallest or most athletic guy on the block. However, I try to give the count and my strike three as high as possible so there is no doubt. I try not to be flashy...SRW is the only one who pays to see me umpire (j/k)...but there is no doubt about my called K3, the count or my one-legged sell out. Somewhere I do have a picture of the blue flamingo. If you are NFHS and have a rule book, the umpire rep on your NFHS rules committee also does a one-legged sell out.

Lori Bish, who will be going to the Olympics, also goes as high as possible. She is not tall at all, but everyone sees that high-reaching called K3. However, I believe she has both feet on the ground for the K3 and the sell out.
