Turku Footblog - Summer!!
Time to bring this blog back to life!!!
Here is some vids...
Marius BS:
http://personal.inet.fi/perhe/sundbergi ... Marius.wmv - this is in the February sick1 competition.
http://personal.inet.fi/perhe/sundbergi ... Marius.wmv - you can guess why this wasn't in the competition. And my reaction after the trick tells it too.
These are my first 6's on video. Cool!
That's it folks.
--- and no boys ang girls, I'll have to dissapoint you. These weren't teasers to some bigger video - there will be no bigger video after all those promises...
... yet.

Today me and Antti had a session at the sporthall. And oh boy, oh boy what a session it was.
It felt like a decent day for both of us and we had some good runs.
Then I tried Ducking Marius once - failed. Tried the other side - hit it. That's my first 7 adder - w00t!!
Then Antti hit flipside Beta Blur with about 10 tries. That's his second 5 adder!
And I hit Ducking Marius with other side later!!
Antti hit Paradon and footed it many times with the other side.
I also footed some stuff, but always there has to be some tricks left to hit next session.
So, second five for Antti, first sevens for me. Feels awesome.
I can duck my atomics again. I hit Atomic Warriors like 4 months ago, but after that I haven't been able to do Freud set anymore - this week I hit both Skullsmashers and ducked my atomics with pretty high consistance.
Feels like Icarus and Id are on my mercy

<SUMMER SEASON>

Time to start writing this blog again.
The Summer is coming, hurrah, so we are starting to shred together more.
And we are planning to film more too, which could mean some more videos.
I'd like to get another vid of me online before Worlds 2005, let's see if it's possible.
My knee has been fucked lately. Symposium and stepping set hurt really much. It's starting to feel better. I'll wait for one more week and then test if I can do PS Whirls and Superflies with it again.
Soo.... We had a
session yesterday. The sun was shining nicely and it was really warm. Felix got really close to Jackpot. I hit Mind Bender bsos and footed both Gangsta Partys. We both also had nice genuine runs with minimised dexless trick amounts.
Footbag is fun

I was shredding with Felix yesterday. We filmed with his camera for about 10 minutes. Too bad he wasn't in the best shredding condition so we didn't get good footage of him, but I hit a couple of good strings - like 40 contact run which is long for me
I also hit both Ducking Pdx Barrages, "clean enough" as Felix said. I wonder how many have hit it cleanly...
Sooo - We really are getting some filming done, and if we get a video done it is supposed to have footage from various locations and Felix SHOULD be starring in it now. I hope he doesnt't turn me down this time.
I think that we will be filming for maybe the next two weeks or something and then you'll get some Turku shred in your face!!! Yo!!
3 more exams next week and then I get to spend my summer holiday... which includes a lot of footbag I hope. And filming.
Assbrush-Felix has been spending holidays for almost two months already

OK. IF anybody has been reading this, I have to let you down now. It seems like there there is going to be no videos. Sorry people. Motivation for some players here is zero and there's nothing to do about it.
And It seems also that I won't continue writing this blog anymore. For a while at least.
Shit happens.

Anssi, perhaps you can improve your motivation by participating in Turku Open on June 18. You can team up with Felix on Intermediate Doubles Net. If you wanna play net, just go to .org/events -> Turku Open and register your ass online.
We could really use more intermediate players.
Just do it for fun.
