Back on the Blog !
Monday was a kool session for sure. It was good that our new man
Philip made his comback and i liked all the smooveness from Nora's
side, her style looked really calm and controlled.
Both, Bjoern and Max had nice runs and tricks going, but i didnt
witness too much of it, since i was busy being at war with myself.
( i'll talk bout that l8er..)
Bea was playing very well i think, and she enjoyed it too;
her runs are getting longer again, and the whole game of hers
is almost perfect on her level, that is .
Like with most girls her way of shredding got a nice, smoove flow to it,
but her game is at the same time also highly energetic and athletic .
Everything she hits and her whole approach to footbag is both
effortless and powerful, and she's proper tiltless every time !
That makes hers so special in my eyes, and i really hope that Bea
can play together with Caro fron Montreal one day .
Bea rules !
Now to something completly different : Bessesenheit, a good and a bad song !
All right, drilling went well at first; 40 toe alt toestalls and a new personal record of 26 alt inside stalls.
But mostly i worked on flipside pixie and clipper related moves ;
flip plo is getting a little more consistent and less effort to bust..
I also hit a couple of flip smears and, shit that felt very nice,
flipside pdx mirages, butterflies and clipper>gyro toe are slowly
improving...
In the circle i starded of with a decent run, but then i completly lost it.
I wasnt sure what to hit, and when i was, things ended after 5 or 6 contacts.
That drove me nuts and spontaneity was getting close to zero, so i went
back to school. Being not the cleverest at times, i worked on illusions and
flip symposium mirage, a )was draining and the latter unsucsessful.
The pain in my legs crept back on me and i began to feel dizzy, so i sat
down, which i hardly ever do in sesions.
Weariness took me and all my energy had left me that moment
so i even thought about going home.
After a little rest and some water, i realized i simply had to take things
a little lighter and i got back in the circle, some times stringing, some times skooling ( i'm a naughty boy, i know...)
And as my fixation subsided, my strings got longer and less boring .
Getting more and more into it, the facination and passion slowly returned
and i hit all of my little tricks, but one ( pixie spinning toe ) that session .
Later on i worked on stuff thats very difficult for me and things got reaaly nice : )pixie heel stall, pixie pincher ( nu ), 8 consecutive flip illusions,
19 alternating leg overs ( old record 8 ), 3 ducking mirages, backside
smear ( skidmark ?) and some ground breaking new shit
pixie illusion !!!, i didnt fucking believe that i'll ever be able to hit that one, it still feels dammn goood !!!
sorry.
but its the biggest thing i ever hit.
To get something good out of my obsession and stubborness is the way forward, 'cause negating those traits of mine wouldnt work at all in the long run.
I always was like that if i'm honest, and as long i put it to good use,
i.e pushing myself, not giving up...ect, i see nothing wrong in it anymore.
as long as i dont exagarate.
Easy on the chronic, i'm just at the beginning of things and i got plenty of time. and great team mates. and a damn nice bag.
Once again it was a wicked session, thanks to all for the good time
Thats it, thanks for bearing with me.
Good night,
