Nice stuff Jorden!

Have you hit inspinning drifter / torque?

Oh, and could you give a couple of tips on that pullback trick?
I thought it was very cool.

Cheers, and keep up your good progression!

It sucked b/c I was kicking for like, 25 mins straight and nobody bothered to watch any of it!! My school just doesn't care. I almost feel like an outcast at times.

Same, its not cool. I thought it was because I just wasn't good enough to attract the crowed, after all I am no Jorden Moir. So because of this, I pulled together a demo including a few friends Including Ricky Moran (cuz everyone loves to watch that kid kick), we did it in the hall during lunch time at my old high school ..... people threw batteries at us and empty pens.

I remember why I dropped out now. But no worries, I was able to fall back on a program at the local college where I get a diploma and technical degree FOR FREE, no charge at all plus any extras such as internships and such. But there, they actually like it and I am about to start a club that should be pretty popular in no time, Footbag and Juggling.

Things get better after high school, you only miss your friends, college rocks, Dig it.

Sad as it is, that's actually kind of funny.

makes me want to cry...really. Thats so the oposite of olympic footbag...I really hate people sometimes (negative energy isn't good) Thats one reason I love footbag though, just about everyone you meet through it is awesome (refrains thinking about the assholes in the windsor quitting thread).

I should prolly post this in challenges, but I never check there so I won't know if you hit it. About 2 years ago I had a dream where I was watching Mulroney (it looked like the 99 videos taken at night) and he hit a blurry torqued blender..so clip>op in>op in> op in>same osis. I always thought I would be the first I saw to hit this, but watching you all the time makes me think you could. It would be so awesome. Its just like a blurry merlin with a twist. Give it a shot Jorden. Blow our minds even more!

Peace,
Bum

-=Thurs. May 26th, 2005=-

Yesterday it was beautiful outside in the ol' town of Dundas. A BMXer and I had a freestyle sesh after school at the tennis courts. Took a few cool pics (they'll be uploaded soon) and I threw down a lot of stuff I've been neglecting.
Highlights:

- tapping eggbeater (both sides)

- shaft BSOS (first time hitting flip)
- alpine blurry whirl BSOS
- run w/ both tapping drifters & both pigbeaters
- alpine tapping whirl (both sides)

- tapping dlo BSOS
- legbeater > matador > sumo (first half of Rubberman II!)
- muted atomic clip > gyro legover > toe gyro mirage > muted atomic clip > gyro legover > toe g~ (drop)

At the very end:

- double inspinning osis

Can't wait to kick outside some more.
Peace and good shred,

Jorden

Hey, on the topic of merlin, I just though of a move the other night I thought you could hit, Jorden: merlin with an extra dex at the beginning. Like a toe barrage bailed to symp mirage, all downtime. So Job's would be:

toe >> op in [DEX] > same in [DEX] > (no plant while) op in [BOD][DEX] > op toe [DEL]

DO IT

Flapper

Dragon

Introducing the 'Nessie' delay.

Lawnmoir (mid-slicing)

Check out these pics.

I set lawn moir as my wall paper. All of them are really cool though.

What is slicing?

footjoe · Post by **footjoe** » 30 May 2005 04:25

slicing is gyro rev. swirling set and splicing is gyro symp rev. swirling set

shreddaily · Post by **shreddaily** » 30 May 2005 13:13

Slick pics jorden! were those all just lots of takes or do you have a camcorder that puts out pics? PS whirl never gets old

mosher · Post by **mosher** » 30 May 2005 15:50

Those shots are fantastic Jorden.

I have the slicing one as my background also.

I look forward to shredding with you again soon.

You're sooooo good.

I heard that you re in training. I hope that you become the Rocky of North America (as compared to Ivan Drago, the crazy russian boxer)

funniest thing i've read in a long time. But don't underestimate Dolph Lundgren (Ivan Drago), he was the most perfectly trained athlete according to the script (not to mention a big bad ass

nice work on marius bsos and dod swirl. Not only are you a great shredder, but very inspiring and innovative at the same time

First off, could everyone that received an I-Kix from me in Helsinki do me a huge favour and post your thoughts in this thread?

http://modified.ca/footbag/viewtopic.php?t=10114

Gaah, I've been meaning to do a Worlds write-up for quite some time. I brought a journal, but was too busy kicking to actually write stuff in it.

I'll make a giant point form list of everything I can remember soon!

About 3 days ago, I purchased some G-Units. To me, these things are a godsend. Modding takes half the time of Lavers. Shreddable the moment you lace em up. Seriously.

I'm used to that 2 week or so period of shitty seshes and utter frustration while my Lavers are starting break in. Not anymore! The Gs are superior to Rods pretty much every way I can think of. Might never go back.

With the G's:

- 60 contacts guiltless

- xbd rake (opposite foot) X 41
- gyro whirling butterfly
- double atomic butterfly

If in doubt, BUY THESE SHOES!! (G-Unit G6 leather originals)

Peace and good shred,

burma · Post by **burma** » 15 Aug 2005 10:02

hey Jorden, i think i can help you to remember some stuff you managed to hit at worlds

.

and are you really going to forget about lavers? =/
