Wow, you guys doing the right thing here - archiving ( pls gimme gimme )
shreding hard and putting out vids 8) and :D at the same time !!!

I keep my self busy with skooling in general :
dlos, equasions, patience, latin and all the other 3's and 4's...

Before and after work i could shred for a bit, a really tiny bit,
if you ask me , a meager total of 45 hot minutes.


This is what i hit :

stepping clipper bs

smear>drifter ; gyro mir>smear

smear>ss butter>ripwalk>run

ducking clip>ripwalk>short run bs

butter>step legover>smear
one one side , ducking clip>st. legover>plo
on my flip - thats the way 4ward !

diving clip>ducking clip back 2 back

ducking clip>blur b2b 8)


flip legbeater...i hit it probably once before, but this time i sealed it
with a short run, which inspired me to hit my first flip

tapdown

lets shred on the weekend and make a new vid :D

Hi Markus I hope the surgery goes well! And that you are back soon showing us how to do Nuclear!

17. October 2005
After recovering from a annoying cold shreding in the gym was the best thing to do :) Bea, Bjoern, Daryl and I were there.
For me the session was really good...
Flip DLO > Pixie ... several times
Sidewalk > Ripwalk 3 times in a row yeah that are 12 stepping tricks linked :)
3x Atomsmasher (2 of them were on flip so 4x shouldn't be too hard 8))
Some good runs
One long runs with only Butterflies, ss Butterflies and Osis <- important for my game


And Daryl plz back me up where my memory fails me.

DISCLAIMER :

Max is by no means an add hunter in the common meaning of the word,
which means, he's not hunting for "cheap" moves, just to say :
Yay, i've hit this and that many adds .

It is a pun that i came up with, when i was very new to the sport and
when i didnt know anything about the negative connotations that go along
with the footbag term "add hunter".
His surname "Jaeger" is hunter in german, and since he's a footbag player and not a killer, we called him add hunter instead of head hunter....

Ah yeah, i still bust and stuff, but i'll talk about thi shit when i come home from work :P [/b]

I feel your pain, man - i'm in the same predicament, too much of studying
and work these days !

Plus, the crap weather . I caught a cold, so i cant shred outside at all these
impossible places and times i've grown accustomed to.

But all this will last only till next week, since i got my work hrs down and
rearranged my schedule, so that i have more time for the sweet things
in life, like sitting here telling you all that Bea hit legbeater on
monday :D !!!

my new hat is truth 8) .

Well, i didnt had the time to post recently, so heres the update ;
since my last entry i only managed to shred twice, once at school
last week and another time on this mondays gym shred :

At school, i was working hard on all the walks and flip pixie ish.
It was good and sweaty, and the time working on more guiltless
combos was also well spent -

butter>p mir>smear>butter>p mir>smear Yay !

butter>ssbutter>p mir b2b

ducking clip>far butter>shmoe
strong

ducking clip>far butter>dlo flip

tap>smear>butter>p mir ; tap>plo>butter>p mir>smear strong

tap>plo>butter>ducking clip>ducking clip

stepping clipper bs
:D

Monday :

I was late due to a weird meeting at work, so i didnt dee much of Bjoern..
:cry: and everybody else was playing hard already when i finally showed
up. Bea was doing good, especially at the beginning and as i always
say that Max busts the hardest and that Bjoern has the best style
from our team - Beatrice definitly has the best form : 2 years, her and
Yves = double freestyle extacy = wedding gift :P :P :P !
MMMMax, well, he's getting really good, but strangly enough, i feel
like getting to his level the sooner, the better he becomes.
The word i'm looking for here, is inspiration, i guess :wink: ...
Just gimme 1,5 yrs :twisted:...

Anyway, after warming up with all kindsa clippers and BOPs,
(claps himself on the shoulder at least twice..), and some disorientated
pixies, i got sucked in the circle.
I wasnt tooo crazy, but i felt solid and kinda daring and at the end,
when people left and got a little to tired for long runs, i was just in
the mood to unleash some atomic ( and other !) frenzy :

atomsmasher>smear>run strongside , atom>plo>run flipside :D

atom>ss smear>run and blur>atom>long run ( flip atoms )

atom>smear>atom>run with another flip atomsmasher 8O

atomsmasher>atomic legover>run

dimwalk>dlo

ducking clip>spinning clip>mirage>ss clip>spinning clip>p mir

a run with butter>step legover bsosand flip blur out of ducking clip

a run with atomsmasher, ripwalk and flip blur


terrage>butter>p mir>smear>ducking clip>p mir>plo>ducking mirage


spinning osis !!!

terraging ss clipper
the first ones were really shitty, like one and
a half eyebrow rising dexes, but one that i hit towards the end was legit .

What else ? 21 tiltless with butters, p mirs, duck mir and ducking clip -
shit loads of pixies, but not enough and definitly not enough linkage.
Both legbeaters again - dear Jesus, i gotta hit matador !

Thats it.

I was wondering who else exept Daryl is coming from Munchen to French Open?? I don't it a good idea to let him come alone in Paris... you should find someone who takes care of him...
Well, I really hope to see you guys & girl soon!!
And props for all your moves!

edit: for those who don't know, french open is the 11-12-13 of november, in Paris.

Kinda true for me aswell - i mean i wasnt pissed or anything, but more
of a victim of concentration difficulties, but had enough endorphins going
to stay happy :D

I felt good anyway, hungry to bust, since i wasnt shredding much the
last weeks and my two seniors encouraged me and challenged me
to hit some new stuff .
Hint, hint...do that more often :wink:
My runs werent on, but they werent sucky either, still climbing my
way up to guiltlessness .
I was able to hit most combos on both sides :duck clip>step legover bsos,
duck clip>blur bs, smear>butter>p mirage b2b and so on .

New shit :

10 cosecutive smears
- that really surprised me !

symp mirage> ss symp mirage bs

ducking clipper>blur>smear>dimwalk

smear>tap>butter>p mir>tap>plo>run

toe blur, atomsmasha, parkwalk, dimwalk in 1 run :P

atomsmasher>ducking symp mir>dimwalk

toe blur>atomsmasher
- its so much harder then
the other way around and this lil' combo was probably the best and
most rewarding sensation in this sesh .

And one new trick i've been waiting (not nessesarily working ) for
4 ages :

PIXIE DLO - relief. I'm not too stupid to triple dex :lol:

edit : thanx Ian...till in two weeks :D !!!

Thanks Szymon !

Btw, have you seen our latest vid, starring Bjoern and Max?
I think it svery nice, and i wondered, why no one commented on it yet...

I just came back from a little session, so i better write this while my
memory is still - totally unlike my shorts- fresh !

My infinities need mad work, so i gave em some lovin, which paid of
in the later part of the shred. I still couldnt break my record, but i kinda
know how to do them now, and also stepping out of butters was fairly easy today.

Stepping. Mhhhh, what can i say it really is like pixie, i.e. unreliable,
but today it was there, making me smile :D

I also did some spinning, to relax from all the dexing, and i did countless
attempts to break my plo record (4), but i only managed to tie it a few times, both sides, of course .

plo>tap>butter>p mir>smear>d mir>d clip

tap>plo>tap>plo>but>p mir

butter>shmoe>butter>step ss mirage>smear

gyro legover both sides

diving clip>sidewalk>mirage>ss clip>diving clip>step legover

ripwalk bsos

blur>dim>blur

one run with shmoe, flip blur and butter>step legover bsos

Today i had a big day footbagwise - i finally found out how to whirl !
I wanted to have a session before work, but time was too short to
go thru the whole program of drills, combos and runs.
So i decided to do something i rarely ever do - skooling a single move.
A couple of pixie to hand for a warm up, and then i really got into whirls.
I love thhem, loved em ever since and i can clearly remember watchting
vids at a very early and uneducated stage in my footbag life, of me
smiling when i saw somebody hitting a whirl trick.

Back then it was one of the first elemnts that i could distinct from others
and the whirls pure and simple beauty where part of making me
the fanatic i am today - it was in short always something i wanted
to master eventually .
This goal became more and more defined, realizing its possibilities
by watching Vasek, Chad and especially Juho Marjo doing all these
insane whirl variations.

The first time i hit whirl was last xmas, fom toe of course, and then later,
painfully inconsistently, also from clipper .
Actually i was so bad at them, that i concentrated on toe tricks, working
on my clippers and butter for getting enough confidence in doing stuff
that starts and/or ends in clipper before hitting the often requested
whirl and drifter thingys .
Over the last weeks i improved a lot in this field - it started with a better
form of all clipper variations, which lead to some improvement for my
stepping set.
With better butterflies all the -walks moves became easier and finally
i was able to muster the control for the first drifters and random swirls.
Inspired by some small whirl succsess, confirmed by Max J , that i had
in the gym 2 weeks ago, i used my little time today to understand the
set and the timing of whirls - and it worked :D

Toe same side whirl thaught me about how deep the dex should be,
and i'v hit many of them clean, which boosted my confidence
and made me happy.
From clipper i set low and dexed early - thats basically what Max and
Viktor kept telling me on various occasions - and it helped.
Spätestens dann bin ich ausgeflippt and i cleared the dexes for
toe ss whirling swirl and even footed blurry whirl twice 8O !

And when i, against against all odds :wink: hit pixie whirl and smoke, je zweimal, i felt
like i might actually be good at footbag one day :P

Thanks Jochen :D that day, i actually had to think of you telling me
about my lack of clipper game in Dortmund, and i moved on from
there, i guess -
but anyways, this one good attempt of toe ss whriling swirl
was something that the four letter word "luck" describes best :wink:
but as soon i'm able to hit swirls midrun, this move shall be mine :twisted:

today i was kicking some in my break and i hit smear>tap both sides and
another fat ass pixie whirl :lol: !
