Very cool. I liked the progression in the vid. At first, I thought Fletcher was just a tiltless player, but as the vid progressed, his level went up and up. I liked the ducking mirage drill. It was also kinda funny, cause I didn't know you had a tattoo until halfway through the vid.

The Mirken stuff was really good too. It was nice to see strings from him. Since I can't watch MP4s, I've only seen his Sick3s and ones lately, but his strings were looking very very good. Nice and controlled. I'd like to see more flip pixies.

Good vid. Next time throw some Moxie in there too.

Good shit. I think you go too easy fletcher. If you can hit ripwalk>blur and stuff you could scratch all those pickups. I really like your game except for those. Ive always thought far pickup was a really ugly trick. Not to come off as negative, your drifters are really nice, you have hella clean illusions, and i think the biggest thing you need is just time. In other words you dont have any gigantic problems, your just progressing at a good rate and will slowly come into your own. And if you like pickups, go for it.

Mirken was good as always. I liked the one shuffle run the best but i kept thinking "flip dimwalk" and it never came so i was like "oh man!". I think you should spin more, duck more, and hit flip whirr. I like everything else though. I think a good thing for you to do is to never link more then 2 bops together. It would just make you more intense. It's kinda a bummer to see 7 sick moves together, and then like osis>butter>pdx. mirage to regain your stamina.

All this is said in a very "well, if i needed to pick out SOMETHING" manner. You guys are ill, and I really hope you both make it out to css. Keep up the good work.

Your lover and bi-monthly pen-pal,

David clavens

Awesome video man! This was really fun to watch, I love when there is non-footbag stuff in movies, makes it so much funner to watch

Ur a pretty lucky guy, you get to shred with Jeremy M, AND you have an attractive young lady to slap you when you miss drifters!

What more could you want?

I was thinking to myself the other day, "It would be cool if I saw some of Jeremy Mirken's runs..."

Thanks!

You guys are both looking good. I agree with David's comments in regards to Jeremy, but not Fletcher.

Word! Haha man that was out of nowhere with the Moxie slap to the chest. That and the sexy chest rub at the end for all the ladies of footbag out there. Cuz that's why we play this thing. It's all about the ladies!

Do you ever wear a shirt, Funk? ..Nevermind. You got slapped in the teat, son.

Also, you need to make more videos of you falling on your ass.

If I said anything about Jeremy it'd just be redundant and unoriginal.

Fun video, keep 'em coming

Fletcher
Every times I see You on video my mood change into a bad mood

Pfff your progress are still amazing

I try to stay at the same level but it's very hard to follow you

and I dont play that much because the wether here is so bad (we cant play outside) ...

Congratulation specially for your stepping butterfly I try this an I think this kind of move are so difficult ...
I think you have the right teacher

I mean that I don't really think it's worthwhile to take out easy stuff like pick-ups just because you can hit ripwalk-ripwalk. IMO, it's more pertinent to school stuff as it comes and get used to the game before pushing yourself along to the next level. The stronger the base the less likely you'll wind up having hit a lot of stuff that's no longer a part of your vocabulary.

Very nice video. Jeremy, your style is so smooth. I have a lot of your trick videos, which I like, but it is good to see you hit strings like the ones in this video. As for Fletcher, I see so much potential, and you already shred really good now. Keep it up.

Thanks for the video.

I plan on it!

Wouldn't be shredding at all if I hadn't met you guys Charles! Thanks!

mirken, I love how your style is evolving. You have such perfect form. I aspire to bust like you.

Fletcher, I like your style. you look like you've got a lot of control. Keep drilling those basics both sides. Toss a couple sets in there, and bam, you're a guiltless shuffler! nice dude.
