two day break gave me some energy, shred for over an hour and it felt good!
But the results were away! Played like shit, altough I've hit the cleanest ripwalk I ever done. Ive practiced my stepping for a while and it's getting good, well the set goes past knee height, still needs more power, but I was close to steping cliper and sidewalk
I did'nt try blur ... and all that is on my flipside!
my strong side tough, I CANNOT STEP! It sucks bad, when I set, I try to circle the bag instead of stepping it, wich takes away all the time and momentum, wich leaves me with the option of a toe stall, resulting in a clipper set mirage.. it's disguisting

I tried to realise what I was doing wrong, and my leg movement is bad, I need to plant my setting foot before I step I guess, right now I kind of jump while planting, and it's way too bad..

otherwise I'm looking forward to train hard every day till I leave Gabon! this means 15 days

30 consecutive strong side clippers
10 weak side!
20 consec alternate toe kicks ( I never really worked on those before )
Also did some shooting sets, but they are really low so is more like a dlo for now.. I should'nt try it too much, but it seems so easy from my weak clipper.. I don't know how or why this hapened, but I'll try to do something out of it, I'd love to hit a shooting buterfly

But unfortunatly I need to school a lot more stuff before I can hit that I guess.. I did'nt hit sidewalk yet soo.. dream on !

ok the last 2 sessions my strings where complete crap.. but some interesting things...
on thursday i was REALLY tired.. but somehow ive hit pixie wirl twice! never hit that before.. but something was wrong.. gravity was like 2x faster for me that day.. also hit interesting combo therre .. terrage > datw

and today.. wicked..
i finally think i figured a lot of things...
gyro.. spinning clipper, spinning buterfly, almost spinning osis..it was really nice
double pickup!
and the just for fun.. i tell marc i got some move to show you.. and wtf i almost hit a janiwalker? dexes was not clean but set was higher then my steppings... was really weird

flipside pixie problems, I FIGURED IT OUT! i set too far.. then i start setting closer and BAM! easiest flipside smear ive ever hit, ALMOST flip magellan.. really fun to see that

I know Im still learning a lot of basic stuff.. but I think I got a lot more potential then I beleive to have, I think also that I can get really good if I try to,
I will think a lot of times I'm better then what I am, well not really actually I think I should be that good at least.. and thats what I call progressing..

Watch out for my progress

Steppings are geting cleaner
Blender a couple of times again, when I focus on it I always hit it, then I get lazy!
I wana hit this combo: Diving cliper>gyro cliper> blender (or symp wirl)

acxel22 · Post by **acxel22** » 01 Nov 2005 18:33

dbl switch > symp pixie
geting close to flip dbl switch
almost hit symp wirl > blender
got close to wirr.. But my whirl still sucks, altough I've hit ducking clipper>whirl midstring wich made me prety happy!
flip whirl is still horrible and barely doable.. ugh!

acxel22 · Post by **acxel22** » 03 Nov 2005 19:51

first clean and controlled zulu le loup

otherwise bad session for me, maybe one string with ripwalk , ducking cliper>whirl and drop after a blender..

I cannot figure out why my flip stepping sucks so bad, I need to investigate this manner.

I'd be happy if my good session was like your bad session.

acxel22 · Post by **acxel22** » 04 Nov 2005 12:08

thanks for the encouragement Fletcher

You will soon hit crazy moves and still not be happy with your session too tough, I know it!
