I really hope this hasn't been posted yet, but if it has it deserves a second chance(/post).

This is probably the best post ever made on modefied... ever.

You thought the dubars were phat, you knew the lance mountains were rockin it, and you just love looking for clima cools on ebay. Well screw those kicks! After weeks of searching and modding I found quite possibly the future of freestyle footbag. The Montgomery Ward 1931 Women's Gym Shoe.

side and instep

Yea baby. Stop drooling and keep reading. Now at first you may be like "shit bro those are phat!", but as always, cutting shit off your shoe not only looks flashy, but improves playability!

I started off with a nice healthy brocka mod:

Thank god for that! Now my ankles can frikken breathe. Damn! So anyway, now your probably like "alright clavens, we got the phat ankle mod, but now what about the toes?

Well do you think your buddy uncle dave was going to leave you hanging? no, he wasnt. As you can see the Montgomery Ward has an open toe box design. Of course we all remember the open toe box from the laver, but hell, there was so much wrong with that shoe. (wasnt there?) Anyway, i opened the front up and did some nifty lacing.

Now your probably thinkin phat lacing, open toe, nice brocka, but it doesnt really look very flat up front does it. And what about walls? Well, we all know thats cheating, so screw that. I found a nice pair of nikes, cut the front off, and threw it on the front of the Montgomery. Cuz seriously, who the hell can hit beta gamma ray with walls and a round toe. No one, thats who. Heres a diagram of my toe removal and attachment.

Toe box: check Ankle: check. Now for all those kids busting clipper tricks, we need a phat inside. Yea baby, and phat inside only makes me think of one thing. Silicon!

Well, after a bit of wood and nails, you get the idea. So nows the fun part, hooking up your shoes with style. I mean, whats the point of hitting 10 adds if your shoes dont look cool? There is none.

Now while i couldve gone the tom mosher way and flashed my kicks out with pirate insignia, I tagged these bitches up with a phat dollar sign, cuz i play footbag for girls and money. Of course i got them hooked up with a brand new 120, cuz I like stalls I have to work for.

Alright, now quit sitting there and hop on ebay or hit up an antique store and get your hands on a pair of these. Now i know you might say "But dave, theres no one backing your product! You need big names like Carl Winslow and Steve Blough, names i know and trust!" Well do you see Waldo Faldo hitting nemisis? No, you don't. With a little bit of work and vision, you can have the phattest kicks around. Climacool Smimacool. Those are so last week.

Thank me and the Monts when your BAP,

David Clavens

mods - I mean, I'd ask for a sticky, but seriously, with the responces and testimonials this thread will get, we dont even need it to be.

the side of me that is making fun of other people says:
switch...you put forward an opinion...did you not expect people to discuss it? did you expect EVERYONE to immediately just say: 'yes, that is perfectly correct?' wouldnt that be boring? try to understand that if you put forth an opinion that is clearly stupid, people will make fun of it and point out its flaws. just try harder to be less stupid next time. im sure you can do it!

It had to be said eventually....

translation?

"Totally shitty session."
That would probably be at least the literal translation, I'm not sure if you can get the meaning.

The point was that first Riku had a wicked cool session, and the next blog entry is totally opposite. And the short-ness only makes it funnier IMO.

...or maybe I'm just Finnish.

"montage rake" doesn't rhyme with "jet sky"...?

No, but "smoke ridiculous amounts of marijuana," does.

Yeah and at that time of year the two Jewish Penguins Simon and Esther decided they finally had enough of the cold weather of Antarctica and decided to make use of their new time-share in New Zealand. On their liesurely swim trek across the mighty ocean, Lo and behold a massive storm picked up. Swept off course by insurrmountable currents and chased every-which-way by sharks, Simon and Esther missed their landmark. Exhausted and nearly out of flipper strength to make the nearest landfall, which, unbeknownst to them had been flooded over by the godly rains, Simon turned to check up on Esther only to then SMACK into the most massive wooden structure he had ever seen; and being from the Antarctic, he had never seen any wood at all so this was a major development. Before Simon had a chance to regain his berings he and Esther were scooped up by a large net and hauled up on the deck of this massive ship. Unable to see very well in the horrible weather, Simon and Esther could only make out vague silhouettes of another bipedal species jumping for joy. Over the roaring wind Simon and Esther heard them say,(as all animals in these stories can understand human language) "We found some more animals...one step closer to the Lord not smiting us for screwing up. If only we can find some white bears and shiny lions of the sea we might yet survive." In light of these crazy bipeds, Simon and Esther tried to jump back over board and take their chances with the raging waters, but were trapped once more in the nets and thrown in the ship below. Thank goodness for humanity!

Priceless.

Whoa, cool! Thanks for the tip! That's really incredible! The coolest part is that you can use this rigorous method of research to learn all sorts of things! I've only been using it for 10 minutes, but already I've found wide bodies of evidence which put to rest "contested issues." Here's a small list of "contested issues" which I think I have resolved, based on wide bodies of evidence I found using a simple google search.

Contested issue #1- Did the Holocaust happen?
Answer: No, apparently it didn't. The Jew run media just made it all up!

Contested issue #2- Who is the best footbagger in the world?
Answer: Steve Blough Who knew?

Contested issue #3- When exactly did man land on the moon?
Answer: Apparently, never! All the Apollo missions were filmed on a movie set in the American Southwest as a ploy to get the Russians to waste their military budget on useless space programs.

Contested issue #4- Was the girl in The Crying Game really a guy?
Answer: Nope. It was a girl wearing a prosthetic penis in that one scene, but really she was a girl acting as a guy acting as a girl in the movie. Further searches revealed that for $89.00 a bottle, you can get sex-changing antibiotic pills from Russia that really work!

Contested issue #5- Is global warming a proven phenomena that will destroy the environment?
Answer: No, you're just hot this summer because of El Nino. Open a window.

I will report back later with more truths I uncover using this rigorous method of research.

ZING!!!

Actually that session WAS really shitty.
And I was really pissed off about it.
