yeah I think it was pretty obvious I was exaggerating when I said that. I was just basing it on the fact that two people whome I think have awesome styles - Felix Z and Ales Z both have made comments in the past about not liking their own styles much.
I think most people are like Johnny - there are things you like and don't like about your game. I sometimes completely hate my style and other times think it looks really cool - but I also can see weaknesses in everything I do (and I literally mean everything) - if you mention any move or component - no matter how basic - I can tell you things I think I do wrong or could improve on it. For example with toe stalls I tend to just hold my foot out and let the bag land on it - which is ok for lavers and a good worked in bag - but mean I drop toe stalls a lot with non footbag shoes and crappy bags - also I don't think looks as good as a full stall and means I drop ducking toe dex moves more than I should. I also don't hold the stall enough.
Anyway I think it's good there are people who like their styles - I will try not to exaggerate so much (although at least it creates discussion
)

my style is something i put up with, it will get better when i become more consective with my strings, i love my ducking an spinning, i think its smooth and different.
if there was 1 person i wish i could take some pills and become, style wize, it would be mathew cross, he has such a strong and sure style, like while he is shreding its like his legs are steel, and the bags magnatized to his feet, just looks as if there was no dobt in his mind about any thing he can hit.

i like my style in the way i link moves and combos, but i hate watching video of myself. I kind of arch my shoulders forward when i play. I've spent quite awhile working on posture and it has started to feel good clean and slow, and then i watch video and I hate it all over again.
and i have leggy atomics which dex at the high calf, but i don't like the way it looks. i've started concentrating on hippy atomics more and just flat out getting rid of leggy atomics. unless it's a combo like hippy atomsmasher> hippy atomsmasher> leggy atomsmasher> leggy atomsmasher
