Tommys footblog thing
for all of you who dont know me, im tommy. ive been shredding for like 6 months on and off because of moving and it being winter and all made it difficult for me to find time (or a place) to shred. im in school right now bored as hell and i figued id make a blog of my own. ill probably have a shred when i get home so ill post again if i hit anything worth posting. c ya.

i had a pretty good shred yesturday. afew 6 contact strings. im really trying to skool my ducking clippers and mirages. my internet at home is busted for some reason and i cant get on at home so probably the only place i can get on is at school which sucks.i really need to get people into footbag around here. its really sucks to shred alone.

well,right now im just skooling basic tricks, like mirage>legover>butterfly>pdx mirage,and i learned ducking clippers because they look so fun to do. i usually shred for an hour or two allmost every day and sometimes i have 2 or 3 sessions in a day. my only main goal is to just become a good footbag player other than that i dont really have any other goals besides finish off high school and possibly college.

ya tommy, if u get very consistant with basics i think u will feel alot better then being abule to hit hugh tricks, bigger tricks come in time. push for consistancie and long strings. who cares about the size of the move not droping the bag is way cooler.
so is hiting whirlwind tho but that stuff comes in time, HEY when u and andrew comeing up to my house? spring break? when is it? we are gonna have sooo much fun, sooo much shred, and sooo much partying. I know you had a good time last time you where up, i cant belive i broke that sherlock. lol at least u where there to see it, and had a front row seat. gooood times cant wait to see you again. keep up with the kicking every day and your garented to get better, i mean its just plane and simple, play, work hard, and get better and progress.
i wont kill you un like ^^^ some ppl, but ill hurt you if i dont see a ducking double down from you next time we hang out
i know you can get to where you want to be, if u want it enogh u can surpass any thing u want 
GO TOMMY, GO TOMMY!!!

holy shit, today was my fist tournament and i competed to, my shred wasnt half bad either. i competed in sick trick, shred 30 and routine. it was insane today. i had no routine so i just sorta wing'd it. this tournament has changed my life.
EDIT: oh ya i forgot to mention that for sick trick the first trick i tried was blurry whirl and i ALLMOST hit it. i was pretty close, i allmost hit ripwalk afew times. today my legs are SOOOOO sore. i played so much footbag yeturday, it was so fun.
