mahhkohh�s little fairy tales!

[mahhkohh]

ok since i forgot to put my bags to the pf shop at worlds i have a few left. i´ll sell them now, free of shipping. maybe someone knows armin from austria, then please tell him to yell at me, he wanted a bag but i forgot them every day. he gets discount now...


also i am waiting to get some custom orders.

[mahhkohh]

just returned form a cool session in frankfurt. i was hoping for more local players tho, at least one.
anyway, i was meeting up with ben roscoe. i had to deliver a big size footbag to him, and in return he had to let me test it in a little shred session. it appeared to become some sort of street performance thing, wich was pretty cool, eventho we only made 1,15 euro in 3hours there is no video or picture proof this has happend, just me and ben know about this now, and those creepy guys that talked to us. that beeing said i have to quote one right now, he was speaking more ununderstandible than i could ever write: "dont start to fucking smoke, this bullshit will fucking kill you, you hear me fucker? fucking kill you!"
we both did a few nice strings with the huge bag, then some more with a regular size bag, overall we did a great show i think. lots of handstand trick have been trown around, i kinda hit ripstein (i dont know how i catched it, it just flew back up) bsosísh stepping far symp rev whirl´s all over the place... and of course bens super smooth clean and easy style. and an old sweating man ... me.
at the end of the day ben took me to the place he stayed, we had some noodles and bratwurst, then i took him to my car and dropped him of in stuttgart. he said he wants to go to france now, raise some goats and make cheese... have to read his blog to learn more! ^^

edit: also my quantum 03 arrived today, stylish pink. sweet cant wait to get those babys dirty. and i recieved a package from daryl genz as well, 2 kg of finest tungsten, sweet, thanks daryl!

g.y.b.a.s. > blurry symp rev whirl > rep wich is like the most fucking awesome combo i have hit so far i guess!

that looks so sick

Props

[mahhkohh]

hey,

just played yesterday. i really shouldnt. my knees are slowly getting better and i feel like playing, even tiltless stuff trows me back, but its so hard if you are bored for 8 hours, having the best shred place near you... i am just so short on willpower. thats maybe one reason why i am together with my gf again. somehow it went faster than i thought. but i had fun anyway, and i realy enjoy beeing with her, so, what the hell.

as i was palying yesterday i lost my self again a bit, like allways, and i tried to push me to do some more torques. i relay like the trick but somehow never figured out a way to do them properly, but yesterday it made click, i guess. did a few nice torques midstring, wich is realy cool. but now i will realy rest my knees untill i saw a specialist on sportif knee troubles. oh, well, except for thursday, will go to stuttgart and play with a few locals. well, i guess it will be some sort of "checking-eachother-out" style meeting. they came to me and asked for a session, i wonder how far they are into the game. exciting!!!

juggled alot the last few days. can do gyro,spinning and ducking juggling stuff. thats fun. also i tried to manage to get some "mills mess" stylish thing to work, but i only understand some sort of a fake mess...thats not good!

[Kljopa]

Try flower stick or poi while the knees heel up.I dont play much footbag right now too but i do lots of other stuff

[DoctorJay]

Seems you are getting good - dude.

[Wumbo]

hey marco - ive seen ur string. blurry reverse whirl is clean! that was a nice one. thats nice u understand with your girlfriend again. dude, having a nice relationship is better than all these "chicks"
eyo, go check the knee. i did this and doctor says knorpelschaden. both sides. he wont operate until i get serious problems, means i gotta deal with it for the rest of my life. and of course this affects footbag... i really gotta be careful, or it will end in arhtrose. so yea, go ahead and check it! if youre lucky its just the miniskus then he can cut a piece out and ull be pain free again. anyways, syle is most important for healthy knees, you know!

hey marco - ive seen ur string. blurry reverse whirl is clean! that was a nice one.

i am realy confident about this trick right now, i can actually hit it on both sides and in one string.

thats nice u understand with your girlfriend again. dude, having a nice relationship is better than all these "chicks"

that may be true, but after all, long term relationships tend to get boring because it all will become routine. thats how it allways is, and pausing a few weeks and make out with random chicks can be real fun then. of course you should be aware to not loose it and find your way back home but yeah... its nice beeing back to a save harbour.

hey it says "drill both sides" not "wreck both sides"

seriously, if they tell me stuff like they told you, i´m gonna kill myself. that would be worst case ever. but its hard getting an appointment with good docs, and also i have to go to heidelberg or stuttgart to see a good doc. but i will defenatly check it.

ein baum, ein strick, ein badner genick....schade um den baum....schade um den strick... bin zwar nur neigschmeckt aber trotzdem irgendwie schwabe! so verschieden können sachsen und schwaben gar nich sein.

@doc jay: yes, i think i am getting good now

[mahhkohh]

finally decided to shred in lavers for a while again. and to celebrate this i pimped my shoe a bit, today i started, maybe i´ll add some color and some more to the inside, also i have the left shoe as well, we´ll see how this fun game ends.



maybe to explain the whole idea, stuttgart is also called "benztown" because of mercedes benz, and my town is directly at the river "enz" so i just wrote "enztown" footbag on there... i think its a brilliant idea! maybe i´ll add the towns emblem on there as well, and the german flag...and maybe some sort of "skyline shot" something like this:



guess that would look rad on the other shoe...

damn, wanted to put some bag pics up here...well, next time, gotta go eat some.

[mahhkohh]

my knees are slowly getting better, thats so wickedly awesome.

have to do a show for a kids sport club. thats going to be awesome. just a short demo, explaining what footbag is, showing a few tricks... getting 70euros for it. just have to get my routine going till then, havent played that one in a while, and i think after they pay me they wanna see something planned and no hectic chaos shred. i have 4 more weeks, so that should be enough time to practise.

did a sick combo at work, i did ripstein>torque barefoot. dont know bout cleanlyness but the torque was catched way different. now i have to get this going in shoes.

life is kinda sucky right now, can do too much due to working all day and my bad knees. also i somehow destroyed the mainboard of my computer, now i am running a super old maschine till i have a new board. i scratched my car badly, that needs some fixing.my haircutting plans are failing day after day, my friend has no time every time we have a date something bad happnes to her or her mom... so i look like shit, do basicly just shit, but feeling happy makes it all look not to bad.

wanna paint more

[C-Fan]

Good to hear you are staying positive.

Be sure to film your demo next month. Sounds like it will be good practice for routines.

[mahhkohh]

oh my gosh, ken s. posted in my blog... däng.... gotta mark this day in my calender.

hows your rip going ken? i am pretty sure i will film what i do, specially becaus i will test my new "routine" there, or the modified version of the one (!) i have, wich would allow me top pick fromout a pool of 2 routines !!!!!!! nice

[mahhkohh]

hey, time for some blogging

just ran into a burger king and got me 2crispy chicken burgers, 2 big kings and some fries and a huge coke.i had such a big desire to eat meat tonight. i dont know...

kicked around today, nothing good happend, just drilled my routine, realised i cant stepp out of atomic butterfly...

got a new bag today, from kidzanshin, its so good. if you need a new bag, and you are sick and tired of my awesome super great bags, try one of his. they are realy good. oh and mine got wings...
thats it



my latest bags



my gf took a few pics of me today, for some art school projekt. i dont know, she wanted me to play and let her take pics, and who am i to argue with girls?
hers what she did, i think some off them are mighty fine:





those are the ones i like best so far, she has more on her cam. she has to paint them now on a big screen, i´m pretty excited what she does with it, and if she even takes one of them. i dont know, i think i might just draw around with them. we´ll see, i wanna do more "arts" so that could be a good excuse

oh, i set a chest high furious today. but i´m to retarded to use stuff like that. maybe i will learn how to propperly set furious within the next 5 years.[/img]

[mahhkohh]

hey whasup? nuttin...

time for some blogging.

had a super chilled fun last week. i had a few free days, and i had the most awesome girl come visit me. it was such a great time, i wish i could just press rewind and do it again, and again and again. it was realy fun showing her were i life and how and why. we kicked hacky in all the wierd places i never dared before... imagine 2square in an elevator, just because there was a line on the ground. well.. i think i might just go visit her somewhen soonish...

i had a show, as i was writing before. and ken, i did not film it but there was nothing to shoot anyway. it was pretty cool actually, i got to explain and show some hacky to a bunch of kids that were super excited, chat with some hot chikcs afterwards and show off a bit. plus i got a 6pack of beer and 70€ for it. thats like...super awesomely cool. also they asked me if i could imagine to do more of that and maybe in front of a few older kids, i gues the ones i played in front of were like...12 or 13 the most. but i think there were some older brothers and sisters there, at least i chatted with a few of those kind. the people there, specially the trainers, were super excited bout hacky, they want to make it realy big in there club. that would rule, i heard they play 4 square and golf all the time now.

also, i got an email today that nearly made me a boner. jay boychuck wrote me that he and jorden exclusivly use my footbag i send jay for there wacky hacky sessions... i wish this bag could talk, i´d have jay send it to me in a year and listen to what he would tell me. i guess i wouldnt belive it anyway. make me a video guys. please.

played some hacky today, drilled some ducks and some spinns, tried to do consec pdx whirls, ripwalks and such... i suck, i think one could say so, i need to go out and kick with strangers, maybe happy dextrution next weekend will help. when i cant go to paris i wanna go there at least. i´m relay looking forward to some nice shred there. and a nice little smokeable...and a few brews... dortmund i´m coming...

damn...what else...i wanted to write so much in here... forgot so much... i wanna make more videos, i have a few sick songs i wanna use... hope i can get some decent shred...or maybe i´ll edit some of the summer stuff i filmed.... we´ll see.

everyone who is awaiting a bag, sorry it took so long, but i will send them out tomorrow, couldnt do it earlier because of having hot girls and too much work around me lately. but you will not be disapointed, i promise!

PS: wanna be good a furious... but am not even close(tipps? anyone )

EDIT: got a new oldschool abshire last week, thats a sweet hack. i love it. its almost close my love to my own bags. its so nice and supple. a bit light tho, but i think light bags are not the worst thing... all those heavy bags go me on the nervs...

[mahhkohh]

additional thoughts to my previous post:

- never underestimate a girl when it comes to 2/4 square. i got my ass kicked last week by steffi, she´s so good. and she knows a few nasty tricks... never trust a girl!!!
- i miss steffi
- wanna play more hack, think i will play a bit in goonitz again, they feel strange now but i think they are better for my feet now, and i can even do a few faster spins in em... double spinning ahead
- wanna draw more, like for real, not only sketching and doodling... challenge me!
- wanna get into cloth making, have a few sweet ideas for hoodies and stuff like that. i think that will be nice once it goes down, need to find me a sewing maschine first.
- am in love...kinda, and strangely it does not get in the ways of my feelings for my girlfriend...thats a wierd situation, luckiely i have some huge distance to my "love". damn i feel like a goofy teenager...
- the copy of the email jay send me. i get shivers every time i read it :
When Jorden and I have a session, we exclusively use your bag.

Just imagine what it has undergone so far...

-Jay




Yesterday:

- juggled some. had a good run with 4 balls, i think i get the basic cross pattern with 4 balls. thats awesome and lets me hope...
- kicked a bit. lots of spinns, lots of ducks, mostly low impact and onedex tricks. need to go easy on my legs. did a sweet fairy ducking symp mirage. ducks become my favourite concept now, not onl to watch but to actually do!
- found some cool footage of me, i may just put it all together and make a video. (how often did i say that now without actually making one...sorry)
- stiching bags is fun, i made me a few 2 panels, they are nice to kick around.

big love 2 footyhacky

män, what a last week i had.

it all started with me getting the sunday french open were off. so i started thinking i cold still go there on saturday morning. so i got ready to go, then i heard a friend beeing stranded in munich, on her way to paris. so i decided to go to munich instead and chill with her. best idea i ever had.
couldnt make a shred with the muichx, somehow this isnt meant to be. but we had the most tourist fun ever. playing 2 square in all the big old places, shreding for money in the tourist areas. having police take us away, chilling at the coolest "innercity beach" i´ve seen to this point, tho the beach in berlin had a cocktail bar at least... getting checked for drugs by the police, because we looked suspicous because we juggled rocks that were laying around. we had super good beers all day and cocktails in the nights. we had a super sweet election party in the hostel with some US guys. we partied till 8am as we heard obama won. that was sweet.
then on thursday went home, slept for more that 4 hours the first time this week. on friday i got back in my car and went to dortmund for the happy dextrution dexdo birthday jam. came in, had some kebap, had more beers and some nice chitty chat with all the guys that came... only mathias schmidt and andrew mccarger from berlin came in apart from me. so it was somehow a realy small jam, but the locals were there, so we had a pretty big groud anyway.
next morning we got to the gym, a real life gym with all the things that make a gym cool, got breakfast ready, had some, and then suddenly some kid and his dad showed up and wanted to film footbag and the kid wanted to play some. so we had to give up our plan to have the first ever footbag jam were no footbag is played. (we discovered that the dortmund guys werent playing for over 1 year, and the guest werent realy regular trainers) so we kicked a bit, did a few runs for the cam and chated a bit with the guys and soon they left. and that was the point were we dropped the footbag and got to the real fun stuff. mathias found a trampoline, he put up his slackline, basketball was played, also pingpong (or tabletennis) some real tennis... it was so much fun. i jumped on the trampoline for hours, learning basic tricks and at some point mathias told me how to do flips, that was cool, i even managed to do a few, but with poor form i guess. then mathias went crazy, i filmed a bit of his "routine" then we had a few crazy thoughts, like juggling while jump 3 meters in the air. didnt work that good, mathias also tried to backflip with one ball in the air to start his juggling, wasnt that good but he came close.
at some point jochen bauer showed up and brought 2 guys along. i think that was the time the footbag came back to my mind. so we started to play some, and suddenly 3 hours were gone. i dont think i hit any cool stuff, even dropped on rev whirl war2 drill. overall i did poorly. but i got props for my blurry rev whirl and my steps overall...

at 8pm we went out of the gym, to the kinderman. that was a crazy italian imbiss/pizza place were they "bake small kids into baguette shape", thats what they told me, and i, of course, didnt belive them. but as we got there and i saw the size of the baguette... damn, it must have had around 1kg... or even more. made with pizzabread, it was hot and had cheese and tomatos on it, and i got the one with gyros as well. this was so good, and so much, i couldnt eat it all in one go. i remember mathias having the leftoer from someone else + his... crazy.
after lunch we went home to viktor and alex to have a few brews, and some booze, we call this "vorglühen", if you know a little german, here´s your new word! we watched "101 greatets knockouts" had a few spliffs, beer, jägermeister, i eat the rest of my baguette and around then i realized i could get real wasted this night, i had such a great foundation the baguette was like a huge brick in my tummy...
then went out to the "sissykingkong" club and were pretty disapointed at first, no one there. so i sat aside and watched "buda´s best" on the beamer. then it started to become more filled, and i went for my first beer and nearly died. the barkeeper had some of my favourite local brews from my town... like 400km away from it. i asked how much they had of it and he told me that it wouldnt be to many, he wants to check how they are taken here. a few dancefull hours later all of the beers were taken, i think not only by me but i had most of em i would say. then the club was closing, we went for some kebap, i was still fed from that baguette but had one anyway... i needed something to get the taste of that awefull beer, the barkeeper sold me as my beer ran out, out of my mouth. it smelled like weed and tasted like piss... nothing good. went to bed and woke up way to early, i felt like i have slept only 2 hours, but in fact did sleep for 6. we got up, everyone was pretty burned out, i had the biggest hangover/sore muscle combination ever. i think it wasnt realy a hangover, more beeing totally tired. but everything hurted. and as we came to the gym again i was just falling on some jumpmats and slept, i somehow heard viktor speaking on the phone and telling the caller that he somehow misses me, he hadnt seen me in a while but he was at the door the whole time... so i got up and showed myself. then had a good good morning beer dumpster, making the toilet unusable for some time. tried to chill some more and went home after i realized it wouldnt get better. if you ever sit in your car, and even tapping the gas is painfull, steering and changing the gear as well, even just looking, then you know how i felt. i had pain everywere, but was realy happy.

came home and fell to bed, ending a sweet week.
maybe i´ll add a few pics or the video i made.


yesterday at work i realized that my shoulders and stomach muscles hurted more that my legs so i kicked some, wasnt good but i managed to drill my ripwalks and stepping ss clippers a bit.

[mahhkohh]

hey,

i just discovered that my dog has a phantom pregnancy. thats pretty arkward.because she realy behaves like she would be pregnant.she realy pissed all the time and when she´s not pissed she wants hugs...girls a re stupid.

footbag:

had a session on wednesday. well, i was pretty good at beeing bad. somehow i dont feel as comfortable when kicking as i did... dont know, maybe i should step back a few steps... or step forward and start drilling the harder stuff... i dont know. after i realized that i suck at strings i drilled a few single tricks.here´s highlights:
-torque bsos
-drifters b2b
-mobius (only one side)
-pixie legover > eggbeater > rpt x4
-symple legover > symp mirage > rpt x6
-blurriest flipside (but since andrew mccarger told me my flip paradons are the i gues that was the too)
-ripwalk b2b for some time

[Asmus]

Very nice highlights my friends.

This "i dont know. after i realized that i suck at strings i drilled a few single tricks." makes me believe that you should step a bit back.

It never hurts anyways.

[mahhkohh]

hey...

so, i am at my moms place right now. just a nice dinner, a huge kebap. after this day today i realy deserved that.
went to play with chinsen, some of you may know him, he won intermediate freestyle this year in prague, and somehow it was good, and somehow it was bad. i guess i had a few nice runs. chinsen is busting realy huge. i dont remember all that shit he did, but he has those super long super controlled strings, a huge trick here and there, i remmeber seeing him do ripped warrior>stepping ducking mirage>pheonix>alpine blur midstring. also lots of sick single tricks. i also remember marius>foodprocessor.... lots of cool shit. he did some filming i hope it comes out some day. towards the end we were just fooling with big tricks, i had montage rake on my toewall... lets go get excited - for real this time. ^^

i hope we can play again some time this week, then i will take my cam ass well and maybe we have a littl evideo battle. ^^


non footbag stuff:

i have a new favourite show. its on mtv and its called the dudesons. i realy like it, not because of the stupid stuff they do, more because of the fact that they are finnish and they talk english all the time, and that sounds so awesome. ^^

i was at the movie theater to see the new james bond... well it was quiet ok, but i realy liked bond when the villians had those ridicoulus plans made up, with space stations and science fictiony gadgets and all that stuff. the last few bonds have been to much ... i dont know how to say, i dont like it that the storys tell something that could actually happen right now somewere...its hard to say.
on a sidenote, i heard puff daddy wants to become the next actor for james bond. i mean i wouldnt dislike the idea of a black bond, i dont realy think that would fit the character, but puffy isnt quiet the face i see in a bond movie. maybe he should go and be the next bourne, would be good in these films. some facechange operations and stuff... i dont know. maybe he should even keep out of filmmaking...
