thanks nathan for being the only modifier who gives a rip if i leave the fourms :cry:



ill start kicking again when i get healthy.
If you're injured, don't quit. Just rehabilitate your ankle/hip or whatever is bothering you and slowly build your repitoir (sp?) back up. I've come so close to quitting because of my toe injury, but it's pretty much gone now and I'm better than I was before the injury.

i dont know if i could even make it in to canada, or at least back in to the US ha.

but maybe just maybe 40% chance i can make it.

i been play alot at school, i wait alot for buses becouse we arent alowed to drive to tech any more becouse of to many car accidents in the past years. if any one remembers my friend who was serverly injered a long while back. that crash was horabule..

well any way so i play alot at school an a few buddys that i used to know an hang out with in middle school i now have classes with an i get along with them alot better then i did in middle school, so any way they both show very strong intrest in the sport but they dont want shoes. they got stalls down an kickings comeing in. normaly they always ask for my bag so i started always haveing a shity 32 for them to play with so bobby ( the one guy ) ordered a bag of blurryworld.com i told him that it will take for ever becouse i have been waiting for a email from that website for over 6 months an yet to get 1. so i sudjested a dirtbag from the local mall. this intrested them an they both showed up this morning with a dirt bag each an where all exsited an smileing, made a special place in me feel really happy just for them. they told me all about how they spent the whole day an night playing an all the fun things that happened. normal you would think something like this would annoy you, but it didnt at all it just made me smile an be happy as hell for them. today at school in welding we had a sub so at the end of the day i was the last to walk in to the table cramped class room. an i walk in an every one is in a circle, an all the tables are pushed around an out of the way, an , an, AN they are playing KICK THE FOOTBAG!!! i was soooo... just made me smile, a i joined in but didnt free style only did some fancy sole stall swirl an osis an spinds an didnt hog the bag becouse i leard thats a hugh turn off on newbies.


i havent written in here for a while, my game is well... im gonna keep it a secret for a but. im defently made a big improvement just buy picking it up an playing every day after 3 months of slacking off.


im gonna go watch sams video. peace.

Sweet Zach, I did that once for an english project, I had to present something to the class, and I decided to show them footbag. I did a shred 30 and I showed them some big tricks. It's hard in front of people :-P so don't get nervous.

I haven't seen yah since spike and hred man, when are you going to hit up all the tournies?

Finished this all yellow 26 pannle thats hugh for juggleing, 2 more to go. it looks so awsome. stitching a hugh bag really made me make my stitching more uniformed now to shrink the size an do it smaller.

the demo was awsome, i had to be there at 9 so i had to leave my class early. i got there an got nervus becouse a other teacher who is intrested in footbag whoms class is across from my friends english class came to watch with his students. all the kids where like 9th an 10th graders so i never met any other them really so this helped, also i didnt look at anyone i just shreded. it was cool they talked an gave a power point about footbag witch actuly was pretty desently researched when there power point was done i played for there visual aid. i gave a really good demo, i only droped 3 times during a might i say impressive demonstaration of a well rounded string. after the string i tryed to show off a ripstine but gess i asnt feeling it cus after my 3nd try i just said F your A ripstine an hit spinning ducking whirl first go :) all it all it was a sweet experiance im glad i didnt choke for once an showed off a good show.



at the end of the day i played for a good 20 mins with some buddys at tech, its wednesday an my bus is always late. it was a good time i was spinning like a top. my flip spins feel really akward... like i twisted up an have to untwist or something, its defentley something with my footing. ill get it.

Im playing more footbag then i have in a long time due to the amount of attention its geting in my area. i got away from the dope an started hanging out with a new group of good kids that lead too me meeting a ton of new people who are very intrested in footbag. my skills have came back an im playing well again. im very healthy an plan on playing sevral times a week from here out. Im gonna try to come back to modified an start makeing some tournys. im gonna be driveing soon an working a very very nice job so its looking good.
