Welcome to the modified Travis! I promise if you keep up this blog, you will get better faster. The blog gives you motivation to hit new and more difficult things every time you shred. Plus you get lots of encouragement from your fellow footbaggers.

Welcome!

A couple tricks that I wanna land are butterflys, whirls and swirls :)

Nice!


The only tip for butterfly that i can think of is to do them all downtime. Set the bag, and wait for it to start to come down, then do the butterfly in one motion

Memorial Day Session #2:

Well I practiced with my left foot mostly BARELY could land anything the left side is really a toughy to get down but im getting there, also practiced my left foot clipper.. Landed a couple just need to work more with my left foot. BAH time to watch some fourkast and champions league.

newayz I really want to get my left foot around the worlds and left foot clippers atleast half way decent by saturday. So lets see!

--- EDIT ---

Just found a trick on footbag.org "rake" I wann try and get that trick down it seems pretty cool so do I just catch it with a toe stall on the side and just swing my leg accross until its infront of me so it will end up pretty much like a regular toe stall infront of you?

Go here, look under the baseline trick section, and click on xbody rake to see the video:

Well, I woke up this morning pissed off because this is the 2nd week my abshire bag hasnt come... newayz, I had about a 45 minute session outside in the blazing heat, I started with my usual 30+ kick warm up and some toe stalls, inside stalls. Heres some of what went on during practice, Today was mostly hit tricks not do strings :P

Clipper (Right/Left)
Pixie
Around the world (Right/Left)
Hop over - x5

Couldnt land xbody rake today for some reason :S

clip>op toe inside stall - repeat x10
clip>op toe stall > around the world > pixie > around the world > pixie > clip

ALMOST LANDED DOUBLE AROUND THE WORLD!

Im having problems with my left foot clipper, I cant seem to get it flat enough to let the bag stall, and I always miss the bag to :S ... My Mirages I can do them except for when it comes to the toe stall it always bounces off... :(
