I need to find a happy medium between difficulty and not difficulty so I can get my strings to last 15 seconds for my camera.

hehe, i'm afraid i am a culprit of this. i think i surprised myself with how negative my response was to my run & spent a good portion of time figuring out why i was feeling so defensive. i have seen the error of my ways & am seeking to get the vid posted.

this thread is amazing & inspiring.

After a 2 hour solo session, this thread randomly popped in my head so I whipped out the camera. i was super tired and off balance at this point, but I'm just happy that it wasn't kick>kick>drop. The first dex is 'the'

holy shit, nice run especially for a "one shot" attempt. I really like your style and trick selection. Very fluid

Thanks!

I was 90% sure I'd miss that first trick and would have to submit a zero contact string :o

Feedback on style and form are appreciated. The next trick was Ducking Osis, into a zooming drop.

Is there any way you can get your mom/sibling/friend to film for you? If your camera only shoots 15 seconds, and it takes 8 before the adds start, then it's going to cut short every time. Just explain to your mom/friend/whoever that you only need them for one minute total, and it'll pay off.

I finally did one of these, filmed by my friend on a cellphone outside the YMCA. I *might* post it, but I'm warning you all, I am the definition of "amateur".

we all started somewhere. There is no shame in what level of play you are at.

Maybe. I'm usually playing when my dad gets home so I'll get him to hold the camera next time.

I took two one shot attempts today, one right after the other.

One my dad took:

And the next one. After the camera stops I hit pdx whirl and then some bops and then I drop. Sorry about the 15 second thing. :(
