Greetings,
It's been a while since I've posted here, but I'm back. Over the break I was able to put together a vid. It's my first so the editing isn't that great and the file size is pretty big. Anyway, here it is:

All of the triple dexes were awesome.

Your style is also quite rockin'.

whoa! you're so good!

your dlo's look really easy, in fact all the things you do look really easy.

I look forward to more movies from you!

Ok, First off I want to say that you are money baby! Great speed and good difficulty. If you shredded with me though, I would say keep the speed of the moves because that is good, but delay the bag longer. You look like you are on fast forward! I'm sure you have seen vid of peter irish. watch how long he delays. If you slow it down like that you will be able to recover and your runs will be much longer! You look like you have such good form and a lot of difficulty. If you just slowed down how many moves you threw per second you could go for a lot of contacts!

I hope that didn't come off as negative at all because I really loved the video! Nice triple dexes!

FINALLY

Nice video, Jonathan! Bladerunner???? So smooth!! I kept hoping to see flip smog and fog. You look soooo confident. Flurry and smoke in the same run (and blurry whirl?). Really nice style. The music was AWESOME and it gave the video a super intense feeling!! I am pretty disappointed there was no stepping ducking, though. If I recall you owned jackknife. When I think Jonathan from Indiana, I think jackknife. Weren't you big on blurrier too? Good stuff! Thanks for the video!

Hey, nice vid and good music.
try to do a few of spins or ducks, because you are really good at shuffling.
i really liked the SMOG > Legbeater. so stylish!!!
i will also try this in my next session.

Why do I sense Pinkus style with way more clippers?

Your style looks exactly like Pinkus' (without bunches and bunches of crazy toe moves b2b2b2b2b2b of course), except with way more clippers.

Is that just me? Or does anyone else agree??

I liked fog > smoke. Wonderful! Atom smasher > smog looked sweet too

Props on that video. excellent.

Thanks everyone! I've been meaning to put more spins/ducks into my runs but spinning makes me dizzy.

ericksonj - Thanks for the advise, I'll try it out next session or two. Currently, I have to slow down on some moves in order to have a successful set (mainly smoke and blurry drifter), but shuffles seem pretty easy with minimul delay.

Chan - I used to do lots of Jacknifes and blurriers, however I've slacked off on them. I'll try and get some next session.

The music was Doom_Synthetic_Demon_(E1M5) by Scott Peeples (www.ocremix.org).

One last thing, how is everyone's download speed for the vid? Thanks

It DL for me at around 160 ... good speed in my opinion.

And really nice shred man, you link some cool moves together. Keep it up!
