Woo, well sorry for sounding like I was dissapointed in you or something. I didn't notice how it must've sounded the way that I posted it, but that sigh was actually for my lack of progress. :( :cry:

Haven't practiced in a while, been getting too caught up in other stuff. Still haven't made any major progress though, so there's really no point in updating this.

Still just working on inside kicks, still hitting 6-8 consistant. It's a lot harder to progress than I thought it would be. Goal has ...

Just a tiny update for now, a bigger one will be coming tonight when I actually practice for a decent amount of time.

Got my new Lavers, and I'm actually doing worse in them than I was doing barefoot. I'm just not used to it I'm sure, because I keep cranking my ankle way too much. Little thing like ...

I shredded tonight. I don't care if "shred" is a term reserved for 30 minutes of 7-add tricks played dropless; I fuckin' shredded tonight.

Barefoot, alternating inside kicks, I hit 10, I did it twice. :D

[Edit: I don't even know how long it took me.. By the end I couldn't swallow, I couldn't ...

Haven't been on the computer much this week, hence the lack of updates.. However, I haven't practiced at all either because of "previous engagements". Haha, in other words, I've been too sore from my gymnastics classes and PK jams to practice footbag at all. I did practice tonight though!

This ...

Well, yesterday ended up being amazing for everything but footbag. I didn't get in any practice at all, so I've probably regressed back to day one, again. I'm too afraid to check, I haven't played yet today either. Haha, but don't worry, I will. I still want to get good at this!

Buying my first ...

So the jam went by fine, didn't really do/learn anything new, but I got a lot of practice with my kicks. Actually kind of joined a circle this time. Zach and I were just playing Numbers near Ben who was practicing an ATW and Mirage string, and Andrew walked over and asked if we minded if he warmed ...

Gah, doing a little light practice before the jam at the Forks today, and realized that when I kick my 4 or 5, only the first one is really controlled. I need to learn how to kick it better with my left.

I'm more just tapping it to keep it in the air then switching feet and repeating. Maybe that's ...

I realized I haven't been including personal records in any of my entries, so just going to throw them all here.

Right foot kicks ( x8 )
Left foot kicks ( x5 )
Alternating kicks ( x13 )
Alternating kicks coming out of a flying clipper ( x3 )
Consecutive right inside stalls ( x5 )

Tied all of those ...

At the risk of sounding like a jack ass.. I said, pretty much all of that in my original post.

Just a Mr. Sandbag I picked up at a local hemp shop. Pretty weird considering I'm pretty sure it's crushed panne and sand. (Maybe I got some "special" filler? :P )

[PS - It's not an authentic Mr. Sandbag, it's a 4-panel stitched ...

Nothing new to report in the ways of ability. Still kicking a fairly consistant 4-5. Can't quite get toe flicks, so I'll ask Andrew for help with my technique tomorrow.. For once he couldn't help me online. 8O

Lol, not really a big deal, I still need to work my way to 50 with regular kicks anyhow ...

If I could do a single trick "perfectly", I'd hop in the circle. Even a mirage, but all I can do is kick it. lol

Wasn't updating all weekend because I didn't have access to a computer, so.. I guess I'll just squeeze it all into one entry.

Friday

Once again, against Andrew's advice, I did some practicing. Just alternating kicks still, as I'm not very good. My brother and I like to play a game we call ...

Once again, updating this thing while staying up all hours of the night..

Didn't get much practice in today, unfortunately. The muscles in my groin area are really sore from earlier attempts at ATW, so sore that I had trouble getting in the shower this morning. Needless to say I wasn't kicking at ...

Tavis, new to footbag..

So, it's around 4 in the morning over here, and I have nothing else to do. Thought I'd start up my own footblog, just because I'm trying to take this as seriously as possible. Tracking my progress seems like a logical thing to do.

I just got into freestyle footbag 2 days ago, so I'm a newbie to the ...
