What would you rate this trick?

Double Dex>Outside Stall(I actually just lifted it with the outside.)>Reverse Dex>Rake.

Some people on here are telling me that it's a really nice trick, but it's simplicity just makes me refuse to beleive it. I think the only reason they say it's a nice trick is because I only just started freestyling and doing tricks 2 months ago... Either way, I'd just like to know if it's any good.

well I dont fully understand what your describing, sounds like a DATW outside>stylie rake. IMO, there are many moves that are very simple yet are still nice moves.

Not all sweet moves are like nemesis

Ok, I'll explain it "slower". flip it up with the toe. move right leg around the footbag counter clock-wise twice. On the second time around, I scoop it up with the outside of my foot. Bring my leg over it clockwise, and scoop it up in a rake, and then proceed to the next string of tricks. Understand it now? If not I might have to find a way to put it on a vid. Which I'm no good at doing.

Thank god, an easier way of saying the trick. DATW outside>stylie rake. woot. So, what would you rate it comeing form a person doing this for only 2 months?

I'd rate it about 41.

look for rating within yourself, who are you trying to impress?

being able to do a datw at a few months is real good... but not the best. It doesn't matter how quickly you get good, it matters how long you can stay healthy, motivated and shredding hard.

I played my hardest today. Holy shit, I've never played this hard in my life. I just came up with a new lace up on my own, I was skipping 2nd hour and while I was posting here I was thinking of a new lace up. Well, I got it all laced up, went to lunch, and didn't even eat because I found it hard to put the fucking footbag down. I don't remember where I posted it, but, somewhere on this site, I said that for some reason, I can't get the simple mirrage down. Well, I accomplished that, and more. Not only can I pull a mirrage naturally now, I can do a double leg over, and ALMOST catch it. I always come within an inch. I got crazy far on my trick advancment today. My friend Josh was just telling me that I"m getting pretty good pretty quick, but he's still way better. I'm not boasting either, I mean, it's not like I'm gonna say that I pulled a green eggs and ham or anything. I'm just extremley suprised by the amount adrenaline I had today. I swear, I could've pulled a triple dex if I had thought to do it. Didn't hit me to do it untill after I was all tired out on the run-down of it. I was just jumping all over the place.

Well, just thought I might say that I played my hardest ever today, and that instead of working on doing a mirrage, I"m now working on a double leg over instead. (Or whatever it's called, throw left, then right leg over and catch/rake it with your right foot.)

Your really busting hard! Remember your flipside and the basics!
Keep it up!

Alright - to me it sounds like a 37, but that's just me...

If you set from left toe first - which you havn't mentioned - it sounds like a Double Switch-Over Outside > Outside-set Pixie Rake.

But is it a Rake, or a XBD Rake? If it's really a Rake, you get maybe... Plus 5. But that's just me, you guys can disagree!

Remember Asmus and remember me: Learn Job's..
