Drill names

Anz · Post by **Anz** » 31 Dec 2004 04:16

There are tons of drills with names, most know is propably Rubberman. Does anyone know how the drills get their names and is there a story behind that? It would be nice hearing them.
Also, now that both sideness and naming new tricks is so hot subject, don't you think hitting and naming new drills would be cool too?

I don't get that excited by drills. Infact unless the moves in general are really impressive they are a little boring. I drill all the time. My latest drills is clip set dlo>smear>dlo>parkwalk repeat - like over and over. I don't even know why I do it - I am really good at all the moves anyway. It's the "waste of time" drill.

Is it? or is staying up until 6:00 am, not even shredding a "waste of time"

The 'focus' drill is a good one....

smear>dimwalk>blur>rpt

and someone needs to name sidewalk>ripwalk>rpt......this drill is entirely responsible for my progressing two-sidedness.

Yeah that could be true - but I don't drill that one so often so I don't think I can name it

Wait no that wasn't a waste of time - you got your video up, I spent hours talking to Theika, and made some drunken posts on modified - that's all constructive.

I wonder if some names have anything behind them. Some of those are like so lame and some halfly impossible.

like:

NoOneWillBelieveYou blurry torque > food processor > blurry torque > food processor

Yeah, right. Who hit this this and named it?

or:

Drunken pig pdx pickup > osis > pdx pickup > osis
Inhuman pdx pickup > same butterfly > pdx pickup > same butterfly
Godlike osis > same butterfly > osis > same butterfly

omg...

Someone just arbitrarily named 95% of those, so silly. A lot of the names come from Computer Games though, I've noticed. Unreal Tournament mainly...

But yeah, WHOA THAT WAS INHUMAN

It really is inhuman and impossible since pdx pickup doesn't even exist. It should be far pickup.

*Yes, this is my really stupid humour.*

I'm pretty sure Vasek can hit the blurry torque>blurry blender drill - he hits a lot of similar combos in different movies even as old as sick 03 (over a year old)

Yeah I think so too...

And I like the names from the Unreal Tournament!

Anz · Post by **Anz** » 06 Jan 2005 04:24

Vasek is not counted

After all he propably didn't name the drill...

Anyways - I think hitting and naming new drills would be cool thing. Let's all go crazy about this and start drilling new drills - or something... At least that goes one to one with the bs-fashion that's going on now!

What are you talking about Anssi???

Same butterfly > Osis (rpt) is totally godlike!!!

HAHAHA

I do think that a lot of those names are ridiculous. The only ones that seem to be big are the "BAP, rubberman, blubberman, rubberman2" Those seem to be the ones that everyone know and therefore, I think, should have been the only ones that should have names...but on the flipside, we have move names for just about everything.

O well, it all gets too confusing to remember the combo names as well. I just, well, don't remember them.

I love the pdx pickup drill names. They rock. They all rock just cus.

ripwalk-sidewalk rpt should be named. It is a very useful and standard drill. Hmm let's call it 'a walk in the park'

Ripwalk>Sidewalk is "'Ole Reliable."

Muffinman · Post by **Muffinman** » 07 Jan 2005 21:57

I named Blubberman

There's also Plasticman which is used a bit. I don't really know of any other drill names. I think it's silly to name every drill -- Matt Cross and CROTCH would be all over this @______@

qphox · Post by **qphox** » 08 Jan 2005 10:10

Yeah, it's silly enough to attempt to name every combination of elements, now let's name every combination of tricks.

No.

Anz · Post by **Anz** » 08 Jan 2005 10:33

YES!!

----------------------------------

hmm... looks like the Bullshit Detector is on move

Don't worry Kevin - you don't have to name them

And to the point --- I'm not talking about naming every drill, just the coolest ones

- just like Blurry Torque > Food Processor > rpt
