I went to Japan for Worlds, had a great time. Also a great many ...

Good news on the knee TJ. I'm looking for to going to Japan - I think a little guide like that would be excellent. Just looking at booking my tickets in the coming days but the flights are probably not as well priced as I was hoping.

looks like your stimulus has been activated. Get training for Worlds in Japan!

Did you happen to go to Japanese championships? I believe they were on this weekend.

I would really love to see Worlds in Japan (it being more accessible to me is a good reason but probably like #20 on my list of ideas of why it would be good.

It this is not the perfect advertisement for Worlds to be in Japan, then I don't know what is! Some great tricks along the way here and the Babymetal soundtrack is very fitting.

I said it in your personal blog but great work on this.

This looks like a great lot of work. I just downloaded and having a play around with it. I think it will be pretty useful. Congratulations on putting it out - huge effort.

School holidays are coming to a close. I've just done a fairly large roadtrip with my sister and our kids between us (5 in total). Have been back home for a couple of days.

I've been getting in some decent kicking time in these last couple of days.

I got up early and did some footbag in the gym today. I was going for that 20 x 20 - 20 rounds of 20+ contact strings. My personal rules on this are that each trick can just be done twice in a row, although I'm fairly lenient - eg butterfly and ss butterfly are unique tricks for this. I end up doing ...

I started writing a big long response to this but my computer decided to just crash midway through.

There were also some various clips on Instagram ...

Last trick looks very similar to those blind back kicks a lot of the jianzi players do, though they are not in the air while doing it (guess some have probably done it while in the air). Looks like a fun session, lots of California Games inspiration. I've been doing some of these combos like the ...

I just turned 40 yesterday.

I always try and do a however many contact run of my age pretty much straight away, though I missed the day yesterday.

I will write a bit more on that 40 stuff another day. Good to get a little kick in. I ...

I think 4.5 is as good as I have done on rubberman as well. Tricky to keep the energy flow going. Haven't tried it in a while, should come back to that.

Superball is always in Czech - sometimes it's in Liberec (where they had it this year, I think they have a really good relationship with the city and get various venues for free).

I forgot to mention in my last post, we had an international guest in Australia.

Tom KO from Chicago came out so I ended up being able to take a day off and head up to Sydney. He also kicked with Dyalan a different time. We had a ...

I think this is a good thread. Glad to see you back kicking and posting.

I'm just going to respond to things one by one, with my general thoughts on them.

Incentive to train

- There needs to be more competitions in general. This will make the big competitions better because people are training ...

It's been some months since I've written in here. A few interesting things to report.

Worlds and Superball. Didn't go to either, would have been cool. It was good to see a pretty good spread of international turnout at either one. Not huge amounts of competitors but it's nice to see some European ...

Congrats on that upcoming news!

There are a few guys that post regularly on Twitter and Instagram and they keep improving a lot. There is also a mega freestyle football scene in Japan.

Excellent job organising - it looked like there was a good spread from around the world. Looked like it was very hot which would have made things challenging.

Worlds in Japan would be great, it should be done some day for sure.
