[Edit]: Here also some information just about me...I'm 18 years old, still goin to school (I think it would be highschool in the Usa or wherever else..anyway we call it Kantonsschule what would mean something like cantonal school..it's just the school u get general qualification for university entrance)...
I'm shredding for about 3-4 months now and I'm really addicted to footbag
...I am a member of the "Madbags"...the footbag club in heerbrugg and of course anyone who will visit our beatiful tiny country somewhen could E-mail me for a shred (to travel from on side of switzerland to the other only takes about 4-4,5 hours by car so it wouldn't be such a big journey )I play the guitar for about 3 years now and I really like it but I haven't found a band yet (I'm actually not trying that hard though I'd really like to play in a band
)Most of my friends are (if at all) just circle kickers and mostly they don't want to play footbag with me...I already recruted a lot of kids for footbag (some bought real footbags and two of them bought new shoes which are better for footbagging
)...Well I will just begin with all the tricks I already executed and which I still need to learn :
24.7.05:
Toe Stall : normal and flipside without problems about 100 alternating and same side
Outside Stall: normal and flipside a few times but I barely use it because I don't think that this move looks stylish at all and dragon tricks are not my thing either...
Inside Stall : Normal very well but my flipside is killing me I have to learn bending my foot a bit more...but I'm slowly getting better
Clipper Stall: Normal quite good already and flipside very good considering the fact that my flipside inside stalls are still quite poor...
Butterfly : Normal good and to my great surprise flipside very good
Osis : Normal still a lot of problems but flipside not bad
Pixie : Normal and flipside quite good but still working on it
Fairy : A lot of problems on both sides but I'm getting better every day
Reverse Mirage : I never get my foot under the bag though the dex is nice already on both sides, flipside a bit better
Mirage : Comes and goes...normally quite good on normal side and acceptable on flipside
ATW: Out to in dex : Both flipside and normal quite good but still working on 'em
In to out dex : Flipside weak but normal good
Double ATW : Out to in dex: No chance with flipside but normal side I almost executed it once
In to out dex: Flipside almost and Normal also almost done it
Whirl : Flipside a bit better than normal but on either side I can't get my foot under the bag after the dex
Reverse Whirl : Executed it once with normal side but flipside not really
Ducking Clipper : Executed it once or twice but still a lot of problems because my clippers are still far too weak
Drifter : Flipside better than normal side but on either side I executed it a few times very smoothly
A few unusual surface stalls like heel stall on normal side, neck stall, stalling the bag on my chest and on my back, on my knee (both sides)...
I am making a lot of progress and I'm footbaggin' for about 2 months and a half now...Before I was a simple circle kicker and the only tricks I could do were inside kick and toe stall...So I can definitely say that theres a lot of improvement in my game after that little time (ok I spent most of the days shredding, about 3-4 hours per day
)...Any suggestions what to learn etc. are very welcome of course keep on shredding
greetings Julian
and the weather is so bad these days that I won't be able to have a nice session for quite a while anyway ...
