A good riseball will "jump" within the last 10' of the plate and you can usually tell when the catcher "flinches" right before catching it.
As Rick Pauly has demonstrated with video of Sarah numerous times, the riseball never "jumps" but actually flattens out before it reaches home plate. Statements like yours are exactly why the myth that riseballs "jump" keep being erroneously rehashed over and over again...
