I cant see Jochen's vid

henry's was 3 very different moves, all performed with great control and style, which is why I picked him.

I couldn't see Jochen's videos, but I prefer henry's move selection to Jochen's.

i give it to Jochen. I like the pdx dlo at the end, the hardest move is the last. Weaving osis just doesnt do it for me. the atom smasher was nice tho.

Henry, 4mb takes me roughly 30 - 40 minutes to download. That's a lot of time just to check out a 3 - 5 second video.

Anyways, that's from a dialer upper's persepctive.

There is also less interest in div. 2 competitions as to div. 1 competitions..

Ever notice at tournaments, alot of people keep shredding right through the intermediate competitions? Call it rude, but it just isn't interesting for the more advanced players to watch all stuff they can do.

I don't like that idea of just skipping the intermediates/future open players, but hey what can I do being a such an uninteresting intermediate myself eh

Oh I could view this vid in university - nice

the atomsmaher was fat !
very good control and timing
I give my vote to myself

pixie legover was just not that hard midstring (for me) I have it in other combos so be sure you will maybe see it in the next comp.

I searched for a little more variety in my combo but I wasn't able to master a combo which included some spin/ duck/ dive which satisfied myself to replace the ripwalk.

Good luck for the next comp Henry and thanks for making the comp/ battle possible !

3 letters for you: mov.

I can`t watch it, so I can`t vote.

I also don`t think people should vote unless they have seen both videos. Reading the description of a combo isn`t enough- you have to take into account execution!

Shit, next competition I am submitting a video which is in .mxg format, which is of me hitting nemesis- arch nemesis- gyro WHAT!? If people are going to vote for combos without even watching them to see they are clean, what`s the point? Save that shit for the theoretical thread people.

I ended up voting for Henry, but solely for variety. I thought both combos were not executed very well (I'm not a big fan of ducking from toe (unless preceded by a set), and midtime pixie moves. Also, paradox dlo had a lot of rotation on it).

As for the intermediate, thing -- I'm an intermediate player and I'm not captivated by intermediate competition, so whatever.

It's not quite captivating, its just fun to see fellow intermediates bust out. If that is true, why do you compete?

If you're complaining about 56k, I'd hate to see what you'd be like if you ran on 28.8 LIKE ME!!!

At least my school runs superfast.
