Yay! Downloading at a high speed, will post once I watch it.


edit: Damn! Nate's got some seriously long runs in there. They just keep going! Tomahawk's look awesome. I'm really impressed right now.

Ahren is expectedly good, with a ton of variety. That's something I wish I was better at during strings...pulling out something totally unexpected, different from what's been going on in the string thus far. ie: his huge long-ass string > atom smasher > atom smasher > double switch > symp mirage. Where did that come from!

I think this is the first footage of Mr. Erickson I've seen. I'm a fan of your drifters.

Anyway later, thanks for the footage, and thanks to Ahren for allowing it to be here. I heard he works in a grocery store.


(Remember that? So silly.)

[NotHisRealName]

yeah, I remember that.

But I'm super keen to check out the new footage of Ahern! He's so 'bad ass' in The Move!, and he's always been one of the origional players that inspired me to play.

Thanks for getting the footage... I'm downloading it now.


EDIT: Thanks for that. Nate (I hope you don't mind my saying so, but...) you've lost some weight since I last saw you on vid. and you bust HARD! Dude, you're an inspiration to me.
James, you got some solid strings, there. Keep em comming. Can't wait so see some more footage of you, man.

And thanks for the Ahern footage. He just seem to have everything down. You can see that his style is one of the origionals (His style is 'Genesis'). He's bustin shit left, right and center. I'm soooo glad to have seen this, that I'm going to watch 'The Move' again.

THANK YOU! Awesome footage from all of you!

Ahren's furious set looks so strange. In a good way.

[sampotter]

You weren't kidding when you said you guys had learned some new tricks. Nice long strings and midstring big moves like smoke and matador. Nice fearless combos from Nate. Ahren Gehrman has such a cool style. You're right about the furious. Midtime fury! What the hell, weird stuff.

Cool vid. Thank you.

HOLY!
gravedigger > pdx torque [repeat]......sooooo sick! I loved all the flip spinning whirls! Superduperfly was nice, and the superfly in that one run with fury and blurry torque, or something? That was nice!
Thanks James! That was rad! I loved the music to the James/Nate section -- really groovy. My impression of Nate was that he can do anything (reenforced when he tossed in those swirl moves...I forget what...far swirl or infinity swirl or something...) I loved your triple dexes, too! I kept waiting for flip pixie stuff from you and Nate, though :p I loved the matador midrun...that was so suave! Like, "look at me I can bust like it's nothing!"

[Wim]

Me like.
Crazy long runs from you all! You've progressed crazy since the last vids I saw of you (and you were good then too!).

+ Ahren proves shuffle can be stylish! Sweet style! Great!

yo mcnasty,

sorry I didn't comment on your vids sooner, I definitely watched them as soon as they came out... I watched again last night with my roommate paul. some of your strings went on forever with so much variety, it had us grabbing our heads going whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!? speaking for both the videos, I loved pswhirl > spinning whirl, and mobius > ps whirl and your run with EVERYTHING in it that ended with void and had a vertigo, too. Void was insane.

thanks for throwing in that torch guy, too. he's okay
