Randy's footblogs

Alright let me start by saying footbag is the best sport ever, and I have to thank Derrick Ogden and Tom mosher for that. I went to school with derrick and one day he showed me footbag and I was only hacking at the time, so it was impressive to me. He said he learnt it from a queen student who he saw doing footbag(Mosher). so a couple months later I get into it a little bit and when summer hit I was addicted. Derrick got clima1 so he gave me his old pairs of laver's which I prefer over climas anyway.

I moved to my dad's at the end of the summer and didn't footbag for a long time, but got back in to it and i've been hitting mirage, symp mirage, legover, butterfly, ducking butterfly, whirl drifter, torque and I almost hit barfly. It's my last year of high school and I've bben footbagging there and you know the short shorts, so people are trying to call me a homo but I show them a butter fly and say if the can do that.
BURN.

Haha I know what you mean. While I was shredding at my frat house (in short shorts of course) a friend of mine says to me, "I'd call you a queer if that wasn't so hypnotic."

I think people will respect most anything as long as it is being done well.

Good luck!

shameless plug: (come to New Years Jam in Chicago!)

Hey I hit barfly today I was so pumped for footbag today drilled a 25 hit string mostly butterfly's but that is a new personal best learnt drifter flipside(footed) but that is a start my clf bones hurt after an hour so I stopped but it was a good day.

Finally hit flip side drifter and almost hit barfly...so close(gotta get those pat). hit a 20 contact string and hit four ducking butterfly's in a row.Then had to work. Came back from work and had another sesh but nothing special just basic stuff for reinforcing my footbag ability.Almost five months of footbag under my belt.

I am stoked that you are still into footbag and that the bug that derrick caught from me got you infected too.

props on barfly and drifter and torque and all that, those are all hard tricks.

Finally hit whirl flip side( trying for weeks) but it's not my best but it's my favorite trick so i've wanted to hit it flip. got pixie mirage again and got it flip side. I had a half hour sesh on pixie and I think it helped which is good.

sweet_hack · Post by **sweet_hack** » 21 Nov 2005 17:29

YEAH I hit barfly again today which was good but gettin mad shin splints so I took yesterday off( had to work as well),and I hit swirl which was akward at first but got the hang of it , so I think that's it.

Alright today I wake up for school and get ready I put my red adidas shorts(favorite) and pack my lavers in my bag, the weather is snowy but since I'm canadian I love it get outside it was quite chilly but I tell myself it's only gonna get worse, so I embrace the cold and light up a smoke waiting for the bus. Then ten minutes later a nice gentleman pulls over (my busstop is on a highway) and tells me that all buses have been cancelled. YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY. Get back in the house to warm up eat breakfast,then go shovel the drive way since I'm such a nice guy. so 12:00 hits and I'm thinkin time for a good shred session. so I bring my music down for the first time in the basement (where I usually shred) and have a three hour shred sesh and we have this supply place with six big 3.78 litres of juice jugs that you buy at the grocery store and I guzzle one of those down during my huge sesh. I really wish someone in lindsay or janetvillt played footbag though.

Had a good sesh today and hit the usual strings and some drifters here and there. getting swirls a lot better every three tries(swirls and whirls come very easy to me) unlike pixie ugh.

Just had a late shred that finished ten minutes ago, which was pretty decent. As well played at school at lunch just hitting regular stuff I can hit. Today our school newspaper came out and I usually never read it but today I had a feeling about so I picked it up and started reading it and some random student who I don't know of is talking about hacky sack/footbag and how it's the schools new most popular past time at lunch. As well he also tlaks about footbag net which is so weird.

IN THE END IT'S ALL ABOUT THE FOOTBAG.
