Yo Heinry, you are hitting assloads of good shit.

Perhaps you should separate your knees a little more on the blurry whirls, the way you are doing them now is good, but perhaps kiiiiinda condusive to knee problems down the line.

You have good toe-point (like vasek, the efficient whirl master) but opening up a little will put less stress on your knees.

keep it up duuuude.

Didnt really take a break.

Back by popular demand (from Daryl) i will now post more often in my blog. He actually misses it! 8O

Well me and my friend went sledding last night. We were both standing up on the SAME sled. We made it like halfway down the hill, we both got launched and i landed weird on my knee. Luckily it healed overnight. Gonna play soon.



I played yesterday and went for rippin run type strings.



Here were my requirements for my runs


no more than 3 bops in a row
no more than 3 of the same move in a row




I had a 49 contact run

didnt count anymore but i had many lengthy runs of note.



in one run i had


blur
ripwalk
sidewalk
stepping ss clip
drifter
torque
whirl
ducking clip
ducking butter
spinning clip


ALL BSOS 8O

Nice, your blog is back with good news and where it belongs -

Your progress in run length ( among other stuff ) inspired me to work
hard on bops and dexless myself - thats part of the magic making
people like Yves k. so damm consistant .

Props for the bsos insanity - i hope to see a new vid soon :D !

Btw, do you have any tips ( other than working on osis like hell)

Had another session last night. Schooled drifters and stuff. hit pdx drifter bsos pretty easy, consecutive drifters werent working. Drifter>gyro mirage bsos.


Then i schooled pdx whirls. They feel really good, although i dont know how clean my left leg pdx whirl is. I think its there, but shoey or ankly. I also hit pdx whirl bsos on my 3rd or 4th try. I finally have whirls down. My pdx and blurry whirls feel better than just whirl.

I was also hitting paradon one side midrun fairly easily. My other side just feels so stupid. Its discouraging to try and learn it.

Had another session today.



Went down with no goals in mind. These are always the best sessions. I really warmed up well today. This is the first time in a while that i have thought about warming up with different concepts and easy things. It really improved my session.


After warmup I went for my PLO record which i smashed in 3 tries. The first try gave me 3 :oops: . My 2nd try was 8 8O which was a new record. I think my previous record was 6? And than i tried once more and got 11! My flip pixie has improved so much lately. I love it! So my new PLO record is 11.

After this i decided to improve my stepping by schooling stepping ss clips. At first i just hit a couple both sides to get the hang of them. And then i put them in a simple drill. I wanted to see how many contacts i could get of stepping ss clip>infinity repeat. I started off real slow, getting 5 or 6 contacts each time. And then on my 10th or 11th try i hit 15 contacts! That felt great.


And then i just messed around and hit a fairly hard combo for me flipside. Dimwalk>blur>legbeater. its my flip dim>flip blur and strong leg. In the sealing run i BSOSed it! Woot



Next i just messed with whirls. I got my downtime whirls better. Then i just hit a flip pdx whirl and sealed with PDX WHIRL BSOS. haha!



:D





oh. and spinning whirl bs
