Woot! While waiting for take-out chinese, I hit toe whirl x4!! Last time I hit a whirl was last year I think, and I've never been able to hit it since I stopped playing over winter.

I even sealed one of them. Now for the flipside, and clip set. Always more to do!

IC. Thanks for the info guys.

Crap. I guess that was it...

For some reason I was thinking Clip > Same In but mixed it up with Clip > Same Out.

Any idea what Clip > Same In is?

Has nothing to do with rewound drifter. :P

Excuse my ignorance but what is this set called? I can't seem to find it on the footbag.org set list.

No, I haven't hit it, but I was just wondering if you could do a "rewound drifter"

Anyone?

Oooooohhhhh yyyessssssss!!

I've been trying to hit this for months now, and I can finally say that I've hit it.

Today, in 10 minutes of lunch-time shredding...

First, Clipper > Duck BSOS (some toes and maybe a mirage in between)

Then, (Clipper > Duck BTB > Drop) x2
THEN! Clipper > Duck > Clipper ...

Yeah, I've always had to work on my strings... I do drill a lot of basic stuff, but sometimes I throw in some advanced stuff like whirl and drifter attempts. I probably spend half my time working on new stuff though (which I never get)...

So yeah, I think you're right, Henry.
Consistency counts I ...

Yeah, I tend to keep it on my sides (clippers)... I have been doing more toe stuff, because it feels nice to string a few mirages, leg overs, pick ups and the like together. I only know a couple of clipper moves, but lots of toe moves.

Trying to get whirls and drifters is really frustrating me ...

Why is it I can't hit anything new, ever??

I called in sick yesterday (because I was genuinely sick!), but that didn't stop me from trying to play...

We went to my wife's company's annual picnic, and I played over and over throughout the day... Maybe a total of 1-1.5 hours, but spread out a bit at ...

Ordered a fresh pair of CT-520s today so I can retire my old pair soon! They're getting pretty nasty, and I wear them when I mow the lawn, so the white bases are turning greenish. :P

My new shoes should be here within the week! Can't wait to chop them up.

Played with Henry last Sunday (almost a week ago) and knocked my legs out of commision for two whole days. I was hobbling around like I had arthritis of the knees. My leg muscles were so sore I could barely use them. But that's all thankfully gone and I'm getting in and out of cars like a pro now ...

S'alright. I probably need a few more days of rest to recover from Sunday. :P

Gosh, I hope it wasn't something you did the other day.

My legs were completely burnt out until just yesterday.

If you feel you're injured, rest for at least a few days, then come back to it slowly.

As my brother always says - "Take 'er easy!"

Waaahhhh! Legs are _SO_ sore today!
Hobbled across the parking lot into work this morning.
Feels great to be in pain again! Thanks Henry! :D

(I mean that, actually - lets me know I'm pushing the envelope)

11am-Sat probably bad (bank errands occur before noon Sat)
I'll call you later and we can figure out a time.

Yeah, I have no idea what that inside>toe roll was - just something I did by accident and it looked cool. :P

Would you be able to meet for an hour or two once a week? I have trouble shredding on a regular basis without some motivation. :P

Heck yeah. Even if it rains.

BTW, there is another gazebo spot behind the Veterans Memorial off of Riverside - it's smaller than the one in Lowell Park, but might provide a dry spot for a single shredder, as long as the rain isn't coming down horizontally.

Last night, shredded with Henry. I don't remember all the stuff I was trying to get, but here are some things I got

dimwalk (no plant) strong side
far pickup bsos
butterfly>pdx mirage>atw
3 infinities

Thanks for the session, guys!
Barnes, you rule.

I'll be drilling that mirage > legover run you mentioned - after I rest for a few days of course - my right leg is gonna be pretty screwed tonight and tomorrow.

Namaste

Woo! Had a hell of a session with Stephen Barnes and his friend Kyle from Wyoming. Their shit was tight!

Steve & Kyle had two completely different styles, which I found very interesting. Barnes is so smooth, he makes everything look so easy! Then Kyle has this old-school hack style. A few times I ...

Yeah, I don't stretch as much as I probably should - I do try to do most of my stretching after playing, but should probably add a stretch routine after an initial low-impact warmup as well.

Most of the reason I'm sore is because I haven't played AT ALL for months - I took the winter completely off.
