Whoa.....2nd page.

Had a couple good sessions in the last few days......
New stuff:
Quantum Butterfly Bs :D
Frantic set.....i hit it to butterfly but the last dex was the'd a bit...so i didn't bother posting it in new tricks. :?
Atom Smasher B2B :twisted:
Almost beat my tripless and Double dex record in one go!!
19 Guiltless with only 6 BOP....and LOTS of flip pixie!
Ducking Clipper x 5

Sweet! I just realized how much new stuff I hit in the last three days!!!

Had a session with Dan Cyr (Skippy) today. No new stuff, but i was kinda hung-over so i wasn't expecting much. Dan was shredding well....his tiltless is coming along quite nicely. I tweaked my groin a bit....but it will be better in a day or two with proper stretching.


Other Stuff: School is severely cutting into my footbag time these days. University is harsh. :x I also received a brand new Pengbag!!! I don't know what to name it yet...but i'll let it break in to decide that!

P.S. :lol: I drink waaaaaaaaay to much wine. :lol:

I ate a small bowl of whole foot shreddies today!!!

Mmmmm....n00b training.

The York University Footbag Association (YUFA) is finally underway.
Sad to say I had nothing to do with it.
I was not even planning on starting a club at my school, just shredding with my friends.....but it seems as if my friends have done it for me. This girl Gabby went around collecting the phone # and @ of all the kickers she could find. She wants to be president (she can actually kick really well)....i'm cool with that as long as I get to be GURU 8)

Let the kickers deal with the orginization...i'll just shred!!! :P


Diving Clipper>ducking clipper>rpt
Ducking clipper X 5 > infinity>ripwalk>ducking clipper>infinity>ripwalk!!! :P I think I fainally got ducking clipper!!!
Got my flip stepping on my neck!
Footed Toe Blur

My shuffle is improving in general but it is more in longevity than difficult links. I find if i throw down some BOPs i can usually get Bsos Stepping, Pixie and Atomic in a run. Linking Atomics is still KILLING me though. :?

Whatever..i'll have good stuff after my thursday session with Camille :) .
No shred tommorow though...classes :evil: :roll:

I'd much rather let someone else do the organization, and just shred along happily!

Good to hear you're getting a posse together!

Worked on a lot of links I'd never tried.....hard session...I'll feel this one later! I love my college....so many empty classrooms ready to be shredded. Most of them have chalkboards to so i can keep track of new stuff!!! Its cold here and i need to warm up for a long time.....so its nice to be able to get away from everyone. That way no one sees me shredding during the warm-up while i suck. :lol: X-mas is creeping ever closer and i can't wait for the ridiculous shred it will bring!

Oh.....i forgot....
QUANTUM ECLIPSE!!!! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

What a weekend.... 8O

No shred....boooo...but i will session double hard tommorow to make up for it. My left knee is FINALLY feeling 100% and i can't wait to re-learn my good-side whirls again. I'm almost glad I couldn't do them for a bit....it gave me a good reason to skool my flip.

P.S. Thanks Camille :wink:

I am spent......
Worked on some of my weaker links today
Atom Smasher>Smear>Atom Smasher>sm(drop) :x
Blur>Atom Smasher BS
Ducking Butterfly>Ripwalk BSOS :D
Sucked at spinning :(
More Toe Blurs
BEAT MY DOUBLE DEX RECORD!!!!
Plo>Plo>Smear>Parkwalk>Blur>dimwalk>Blur>Smear
8 double dex...woooooo!!!! :P :D
With Blur, Smear and PLO all Bsos :twisted:

It is crunch time at university and i have a feeling won't be able to shred much in the next few weeks. I'm kinda bummed by the classes and the weather, so i'm glad i at least have footbag to keep up my spirits. Speaking of spirits...i think its time to start drinking!!! :P

I don't think i will ever have Pdx Whirl to my good clipper. Every time i try it i get a shooting pain in my knee. I don't know whats causing it, but it never seems to get better. Mind you, it never gets worse either, so i guess i can be thankful for that. Whats really strange is that it doesn't effect any other element of my game, including double downs, barrages and symposium. I wonder whats up with that.
I guess this just means if i want to shred fearless it will be Pdx Whirlless!!! :P

P.S. Parkwalk>Blur>Dimwalk>Blur>TOE BLUR :twisted:

It will be great to finally get myself on film, as its been soooooo long since i've got a chance to share my shred with the world. I;ll start filming today and finish filming with the wonderful travelling bag which i so eagerly await!

EXAM TIME=Not much shred :?


Yesterdays session wasn't particularily productive. I'm working on my string legth, trying to come up with longer drills with easier tricks. I really didn't hit anything new.....but i'm blaming it on the fact that the cleaning staff havent cleaned my shred room in a week and the floor is dusty and slippery. Guess i have to start looking for a new location.

I'm feeling really bogged down by school and work, I barely have time for a session each day. Throw socilization into the mix and i'm left with an average of 45 minutes of possible shred time a day. This will change the second I am done my exams, and I eagerly await the entire days in which I have hours to session.

Damn political science 2009.A..........i HATE YOU!!!! :evil:

In good news, i landed my first pdx whirl to my right clipper in months. My left knee has been acting up and made it almost impossible to do any Pdx Whirling trick on what was once my "good" side. A month ago i thought i'de never be able to do blurry and paradox whirls on this side, now slowly but surely the flexibility required is returning to me. :)

Theres hope for me yet!!!

I am FREAKING OUT!!!!

I HAVE SO MUCH STUDYING TO DO!!!! :?

Doesn't stop me from shredding though!!!

Ducking Clipper>Ripwalk and dimwalk Bsos in one run
Tripwalk Bsos
Blurry Whirl>Ripwalk>Ducking Butterfly
Drifter>Whirl>rpt....my two seriously un-used components b2b :D
Ripwalk>Infinity>Infinity X 4

Not a bad session....still shredding on an overly slippery floor. Halfway through the session i even started wiping the floor with my t-shirt :oops: I'm training hard for the 15th and the Rochester Jam. Hopefully i will have attained some of my shredding goals by then.

Its cold here and I haven't been outside all day. Luckily for me there is a cafeteria, a shred spot and a bar.....all inside my building!!! Not that I even have time to go to the bar...... :evil:
