sorry havent updated for a while, became a bit lazy

Anyways this saturday was awesome
Loren, Evan and I were tyring to do self records
Evan did 35 pickups, and i came back and did 36... soo tiring

I had a lot of decent length strings with alot of infinities..

Hit frantic set, but nothing out of it
Also i worked on atomic moves, i got tap, tapping rake, atom smasher, and leg beater

Then we went inside where there was a peace convention, and there was a little band playing.

A guy came over and asked us if we wanted to play infront of anyone, so we did and he introduced us all.. it was a blast

Anyways i have to goto work

Peace

Wow, been a while since ive posted last.. school has its ups and downs.

Anyways ive been drilling ALOT lately, because i wasn't too impressed with my game. I was trying hard things, and add hunting, and not seeing very much improvement (short length, sloppy, etc.). And it has started to pay off greatly.

My tiltless strings are lengthy now. Guiltless is coming slowly but surely.

Finally hitting whirls and pdx whirls, with some advice from Ben and Evan.

Im drilling flip pixies, but my leg just doesnt want to cooperate, ive only hit a smear with my flip pixie.

Legbeater, atom smasher, and tap both sides.

5's ive hit include pheonix, pixie butterfly swirl, pixie ss dada curve, pdx dada curve, and sumo

Also I'm aware this isnt the section, but im lazy, and i will ask for advice here for anyone that could spare it. Torques.. I have tried tons and tons of times but the footbag always falls just outside of the osis, i dont know if im not turning fast enough, if im jumping too high, or if my legs are too far apart. If anyone has had trouble with this, and has a clue to what im doing wrong, tips would be greatly appreciated.

Ohh well off to bed.

Well today, we went to Lorenzi Park because there was some big event happening there. I wasnt in that great of a mood, because my dad had to take my dog to the vet, because what they said was kennel cough turned out to be a disease called distemper. Anyways decent day of shred, until my dad gets a hold of me and tells me to come home. We ended up having to put My dog to sleep, hardest decision ive made in life so far. I stayed with her until she fell asleep from the sedation and left. I feel like it has really changed me though, I need to look back on the good things in life and cherish them, because if you dont then all you have is bad memories. Anyways, ive got to get my mind off it, so i guess ill go shred.

Well today i had a little session with jon, and i played like crap. My mind was elsewhere at the time, so i decided to head home. About an hour ago i became bored, so i decided to shred agian. For some reason i always play better the 2nd time i shred in a day. I was doing long runs with alot of shuffling. After that i looked at a footbag trick list and decided to try moves that i thought i could manage, and tried some combos ive never attempted before.

Highlights:

spinning ducking clipper

fear>smear

plo>dlo

matador

Today i played with jon and my friend david, who i just got into footbag. My legs felt great today.
Highlights:

42 pickups.. new personal record, and soon to beat world

schmoe for the first time

blender also first time

For the most part i drilled titless today, with occasional shuffles. Also mixed alot of double legovers into runs.
