Peace & good shred,
Some of that shit in there is just groundbreaking, especially the four six'es ending in Scorpions Tail. Omg, you have really pushed the limits. One day we must shred Jorden, one day.

Props, Jorden! You're such a madman!! Two questions:

1. What's mantis?
2. What's pigbeater?

Props again, dude.

Boo sentences. Here are some random things that have happened recently:

- I have a full-time job at a health food place now -- it's pretty cool
- Had a filmed sesh with Johnny on the weekend -- his nukes are like whoa 8O
- whirlygig > mullet > food > whirlwind (again)
- Six unique 6s in a run
- clean surging both sides (hit bigwalk bs)
- tied my fearless record:
:arrow: fog > phoenix > blurry whirl > blurry drifter > pdx torque > far motion > pdx blender > PS whirl > spinning whirl > PS whirl > spinning whirl > tomahawk (wanted superfly at the end :cry: )

Uuh, yeah. I'll be playing more once the weather gets colder and there is nothing better to do (besides work :P ).

Basements rule.

Yesterday was my first training session in a week. Caught some nasty virus last Friday. Throat was really swelled up. Couldn't speak for a couple days. :o

Anyways, felt good to be back. Skooled drills mainly:

- 20 contacts of Rubberman :)

- fairy same pickup > fairy pickup > fairy same pickup > fairy pickup > fairy same lo > fairy lo > fairy same lo > fairy lo > fear > fairy ss mirage > fear > fairy ss mirage > fudge > fairy ss illusion > (~drop)

- smudge > pixie ss illusion > smudge > pixie ss illusion > smear > pixie ss mirage > smear > pixie ss mirage > magellan > plo > magellan > plo > pixie ss pickup > paste > pixie ss pickup > paste 8)

- far symple swirl > symple swirl [rpt] > pdx whirl > whirl [rpt] > drifter > pdx drifter [rpt]

- far motion > barfly [rpt] > pdx whirl > pdx blender [rpt]

Developed a really nice symposium drill. Hit it both sides (not bsos just yet):

:arrow: ps mirage > symp mirage > flail > toe symp whirl > symp bubba > symp rev whirl

- blur > smog > dimwalk [rpt]
- shaft, blackula, dolomite & superfly all both sides
- ripstein bs (again)


See you peeps at SJFF!

Those are sweet.
Shaft = very, very, very cool move... and movie at once ;]

I wan't rev-up > paradon [rpt] so bad... I'm always so close. This is definately cool ;]

and the flurry > paradon > ripwalk... Cool. But I'm sure you could add one more dex to ripwalk and hit Blurriest. You can do it man!
3 sessions in 3 days. Woo!
Do 30 sessions in 30 days ;]
