You are really becoming one of the best in the game and that's not just because you're my friend :wink:


I had a good session too, I'm linking with more consistancy these days (10+ contacts every second run). Hitting superfly easily as well as some other fives.
Gonna have a session tomorrow (right after watching a Moir vid) and record it, maybe something good will come out of it, though I have no video editing software nor would I know how to use it.

I hit my first clean ripwalk yesterday where it clearly came up between my legs in front of me :D
But I kind of hurt my left knee and stoped playing, I was playing good hiting magellan without too much troubles, but not midstring:: pixie buterfly without too much problems, flip clippers are getting better, a string with diving and ducking clipper! And even tough flip clipper isnt too good I can duck it sometimes if I'm lucky!

On another note I am now Gabonized... I'm dating a local girl :oops:

Take care all

Almost hit bubba beater! When my first dex is high enough I hit the bag with my leg by mistake... but there is clearly enough time for me to do the last dex. otherwise I set too low and there is not enough time for me

Im working on flip mirage and flip rev mirage a lot, especially for flip eggbeater that seems impossible for now!

I will be gone next weekend leaving town.. a new cool video is coming :D

Great, browser closed while I was writing some stuff here :?

Im going to be cool though, and re-write the whole bloody mess:

So, WACKY session today with James McCaulisse, we both played like monkeys in a zoo without cages and with lots of fun things to do.

New Moves? New Combos!! Spinning Whirl > Pdx Dlo > Tic-Toc (on foot). The transition was smoooooother then a babys ass after it.. hm.

I DID hit some regular stuff before that, most notably gyro egg > symp egg > symp. dod OS.

James hit Tic-Toc OS, biatchess. He's good. Also the super-mario head bump to clipper, which was fantastic. Oh an pimping outside-kick whirl, which was nice.. enough.. to mention in this blog.

The sesssh had pretty much degenerated after James made a complete fool of himself trying to make an ass of me, and drooled more then someone who drools alot.

Theres not much more to mention, other then I think footbag has more variety then skateboarding, IMO. Actually, as FACT.

I also hit a flipside SMEAR! FUCK my flip pixies suck now, they just went away.. I've hit smog, pig, porque, pixie whirl (ss and not), and NUMEROUS other things BS before, but it's just not consistant.. I need to take my time, and im always rushing the set because my left toe feels like a rubber glove on fire with nothing in it but air, which means I don't feel it very well.

James SO skooled me tonight though at pretty much every combo, which is no surprise. We also got moved because people wanted to PRACTICE GOLF.

WTF.

Seriously, "Excuse me, World Class Athletes, we are trying to learn to be good enough in golf to wear plaid socks high enough to caress our hairy calves, so fuck off".

Useless, thats what golf is.

Eli was supposed to show up but chickened out, because he couldn't face up to the ROCK tonight! Its too bad he didnt come :cry: WE MISS YOU ELI!

That's about it, I guess.. until next time, deja vu!

THat was a nice post Nicholala, I rather enjoyed reading it. So we playing today or something? I'm having a solo session here at the school but I'm crazy enough to play again later after you're done work you chump.

Hmm had an outdoor solo session on sunday and it was fantastic. It was beautiful out and I had complete and utter control over the footbag, things are REALLY starting to come together now in my game, just give me till the rest of the summer to solidify and it will be ON!
I FINALLY have a footfighter now and I don't know HOW I played without one for so god damn long. Sand is sooo garbage.
32s!!!

Oh yeah, also had an awesome session with Eli and Caro on saturday. We were all playing really well but the cegep we were at was repainting the floor markings so we were getting high off the fumes...'above the clouds'


edit: Crap, can't shred wit ya Lowrider, I forgot I had my wilderness first aid course tonight from 6:00-9:00.

ah man, I remember the session when you came to this realization, it was the crossfire session in that gym with Nick. Good times... "it makes me sharper"... I think that's when I started using the word sharp.

32s!!!
BRICK!

as marc was pointing out, is anyone from montreal gonna be at the Tam-Tams this week-end, because maybe a party of 2 shredders from Sherby-welfare city would come down to have a jam with all of you resistance members.. the jumping power knee footbag club would represent in the big city

shred on
