I'm on my second week of running 5 minutes every other day now, next week its up to 10. It has actually made my shred suck a fair bit because my legs are tired.
Not hit anything new. Strangely atomic sets are better even though everything else is worse. I had atomsmasher on my foot 3 or 4 times on saturday.

I've been training super hard, just not footbag unfortunately!

I've been running, doing some gymnastics strength progressions like planches, front and back levers, and L-hangs, and also doing calasthenics like press ups, pull ups, sit ups, and dips.

All of that is to make sure I pass the army physical when I apply, I am super excited about joining up, and think it is an awesome opportunity for me to have tons of new experience, and make loads of new friends.

Hopefully I'll have a little bit of time to play footbag too.

I have kicked a little, mostly just basics, like ducks, spins, and bops. Still trying to hit ripwalk>ripwalk occasionally, and I hit sidewalk>ripwalk on my strongside a couple of times.

Props on the fairy stuff man! Fairy is a cool set

Did you find after learning fairy, you could automatically do atomic? That happened to me, it was awesome :0

I could hit fairy a little just after I learned pixie, but never consistently, and just gave up, I think my form sucked.
Just recently I've had atomic down for a little while and watched one of jorden's vids(the one with lots of records) and had a go at fairy and I could do it and my form is a lot better.

Had a kick today, mostly just going for easy longish strings, ducking clip>ss butter>osis>pdx mirage
Schooled pixie a little and stepping a little.
