You're developing a nice style. Are you getting taller?

We need to play together. Nice shoes.

Really good vid, I liked the Drifter > Merkon link, it was very nicely executed

Drifter > Spinning Clipper (rpt) was also cool. Props on the Pixie Ducking Mirage too!

The music was good too, and I liked the editing when the scratches came and colors changed. Props Henry!

nice vid hen. this is the first i've seen of your shred. your bops are solid. i really like the editing. it went great with the song. where's the stepping ss refractions>stepping far refraction>rpt

that combo is ridiculous. this challenge will last quite awhile. keep up the shred and pump out more vids. peace

edit: that's the phattest version of magic carpet ride i've ever heard. who remixed it?

Lol thanks

i think i may have grown a hair taller stephen, but probably not

Again, this is me shredding at probably...... 65-70%

Thanks guys. i put a lot of work into the editing, it didnt come out as good as i liked, but it seemed cool to me

Hey Henry G!
You play like me! I thought that on the first spinning run where you did, like, spinning clipper one side and spinning clipper and spinning osis on the other and made it look like you don't even know which your good or bad side is

Let me say that your drifters are PERFECT form and delicious!! I always think you play and look like Jim Penske, and your drifters totally only make you look more like him (obviously a good thing...).

Drifter > spinning clipper [repeat] was ridiculous; nice!

You can obviously ducking clipper. You ducks look a little strange though, like you're not sure when to duck. A lot of the time it looks like you're ducking too late, or too early, yknow?

Anyway -- great video. You can totally tell you put a lot of time into editing! I was so going to say that. That stuff takes forever. I never did experimental stuff with all the stock effects or whatever, and I still don't know how to use them. Keep editing and keep shredding!!!!

Bring out the gimp!!
(My knees are so messed up and I don't think I will play again, unless a little at the Hackrifice tournament. I need to bike or something...)

Don't overwork yourself. I played a bunch of DDR yesterday and it was BAAAAD on my bloody knee

Henry, Henry, Henry.
Props on the vid. It's obvious that you werent playing at your best (as you said). I like your style! Good to see your guiltless game. You gotta keep making vids cause you are phat with editing. I think my fave link was drifter>spin rpt

Go henry go.

Woah nice Vids Henry!

Yeah your bops are really solid and spins and drifters are very very controlled. Props!

Henry man that was sweet!

Props.

Nice runs there.

Hell yeah, I gotta give you some props. You're style, control, string length has definitely up'd. Only thing I could say is use some more uptime sets (toe) in the strings to mix it up. Keep on shreddin and in about 1 month, I'll put another on check my list of noobs that have past me up in skill

Dude, the vid was awesome. I loved the music and the shred was great!

Your ducks are so controlled. Your spins were so smooth. You've gotten so much more controlled since last time we shredded.

I can't wait to play with you again...whenever that might be.
