Hey I posted this somewhere else but thought I'd give it a thread here.
I shot a short run today. I only had about 30 seconds to film and started by dropping a ripwalk so this was the best I could get. I guess it's pretty average for me. I don't usually drop pixie switch though
anyway thought some people might enjoy it - just to see about where my game is at the moment. Nothin' fancy about this vid.
Oh and I mentioned this in the other thread too - but I beat my Aus champs shred 30 score with this run by 15 points but in only 15 seconds (not the 30 that I had at Aus champs).
My favourite colour is RED but green is probably my second favourite colour.
The socks I'm wearing are green and yellow. They are kind of odd - as in they are not the same - but the pair came like that.
I've actually put on some weight recently Ken but I think I still have a long way to go - and my beard sucks - I would win a ratty beard comp easily I think - it would take me decades to get a santa/mexican beard!
Melissa - thanks I wish I could have hit a really cool run but I think this one is still good.
I actually dislike Christmas. *runs away from Erik*
Very good shuffle Jeremy! If this is every other run for you then you must be amazing. Loved your sick 3 also (can I say that?) Hmm... I loved everyone elses too... see no bias.
anyway, really good stuff... why are there so few videos of you out? I want more Jeremy O'Wheel!
What is your record for consecutive shuffle contacts?

It's hard to get footage of me out there because I don't have a camera and those that do are really busy. Also I've improved a lot since the last time I was filmed so I don't know if it will be that great - maybe it will - I remember playing well for my standard then.
My shuffle record is 27 I think (maybe 26) - sealed with osis>handcatch - but I wasn't worrying too much about repeats - so it was probably only about 15 unique.
These days probably not every second run is like that - because I've been really working hard to learn how to hit non shuffle runs and I'm still not that good at a lot of non shuffle moves - so it depends. If I was in a circle with some really good players who were constantly throwing it down - I'd probably only hit stuff I'm good at - otherwise I like to challange myself and hit (or at least try) runs with spins and drifters and twirls and stuff like that.
Haha -- good call on Tuan (in a good way -- Tuan rocks!) I noticed it looked almost sped-up too. Holy crap. I liked seeing the footage too. Thanks, Jeremy. I liked that one video you put out ages ago -- these are, like, the only videos I've seen of you too. Good stuff.
You really love Christmas, Ken? @_____@
PS: I really dig the socks. I have asked for red lavers for Christmas -- I hope I get them!!!! I also started a thread about this, but I'm pretty confident I want RED!
Actually I think it is a tiny bit sped up - it's shot on a digital photo camera and it has a fairly low frame rate - like 15 frames per second I think - plus I have to convert the file to an avi and then compress it - so it loses some quality. So it makes me look a little faster than I am I think - I don't know how significantly - I have thought I am too fast for a long time and have been trying to slow down a little.
I can't really film very much - maybe a run or two a day if I remember to charge be batteries (and can hit the runs on demand) but I'm sure there will be a shit load of footage from the Aus champs in Feb - also I might get my brothers girlfriend to film me a little when I visit next. - and of course there is the brisbane footage which is a little outdated...
nice run jeremy but i think my favorite thing about this thread was that the first 4 or 5 posts had nothing to do with the video but more of your style than anything.
