tonight no really long strings, but a lot of new links, it was really fun
zooming is getting consistant on one side
spinning ducking too.. hit a couple of spinning ducking clippers midstring :D

I tought I almost had bigwalk at some point until Ianek made me realise how unclean the sets are and explained me how it should be, its like 3 times harder then I tought..
my last move to close the session and my presence in the montreal scene for 7 months is a frigid blender, goodbye Montreal!

Was really great to play with you axcel22. You improved a lot, and thanks for the advices for spins. i really sucks at spins, but less then before. Have a good experience in Gabon and see you after.

had a good session today; was quite short, since first outdoor session, and I still have troubles with the heat...
almost ripwalk to ripwalk
had a good string that started with datw> dbl switch > buterfly> pdx mirqge> paradon> osis> and like 6 more contacts. of ducking clipers and osis

i think flip step is almost hitable.. the ripwalk seems ok but I wasnt filming since I was playing outside.. I will try again inside on next session
but my steps defenetly improved on this session on both sides, even managed to have better sets ..

ducking clipper with a cell phone make people go crazy here :D

Mathieu, the difference in weather from Montreal and Africa must be totally mind blowing right now. I can't wait till we shred again!

playing outside is almost natural, just really sweaty and need to stop every 2-3 minutes to get breath back

Props on ripwalk>ripwalk...That's such a cool trick when done back to back.

I can't imagine playing in the hot African sun, let alone all by myself. You are the epitome of dedication. Keep up the great work!

after working a lot on spins out of osis both sides, I can now do osis>pause>rpt no problem.. flip osis still needs improvement I drop it too often, but its getting better, spins out of it are really hard tough, unlike my good osis..
also had a small ducking buterfly session, my flip is really bad, only managed to get close to blender or symp whirl out of it, otherwise only hit osis after it, its that bad...

aewesome reverse swirl session last night, the move unlocked both sides!
rev swirl>osis>rev swirl both sides
rev swirl > symp whirl
symp whirl> rev swirl
rev swirl> infinity > rev swirl
rev swirl > spin osis
rev swirl > ducking clip both sides
rev swirl > blender!
it was really fun and encouraging for a move like this to unlock.. I still drop to it a lot, but can certainly hit it often

otherwise tried some combos.. ripwalk > gyro clip > symp whirl
ducking osis> gyro clip > symp whirl

a flip smear for the first time in like 3 weeks... damn flip pixie, the set is good I just freeze too much on it.. bah

some flip steping, nothing good tough

rev swirl :D

peaking clipper (clean gyros)
osis record went from 7 to 16
about 12 consec buterflys every time I tried to go for consecutives..
end of session was bad, playing outside at work on lunch time.. no shower for me and I'm still here for 5 hours; oh well I still stink less then a some girls here :D

my girlfriend kicked 3 times and did 2 toe stalls last night, that will probably be the only footbag from her tough!
