*sigh.. "you should put more whirls, drifters, and dlos into your runs." "you should work on ducking clipper>ducking clipper more."

This past weekend was jawsome, thanks for accommodating me.

Fat props on that drill session! Glad to hear backside blur is coming along; throwin' down those 5s, SON!

went to jiu jitsu, and then i decided to shred while i was still warm.

hit blurry whirl! im pretty sure it was clean, it took me a gazillion tries and it felt real good.

backside blur

footed tomahawk... the duck and dex were clean but my foot just wasnt there.

both sides! about 30 attempts total, maybe more. would have done it until i hit it but i got too hungry.

hit ripwalk>butterfly>butterfly>ripwalk
ripwalk>flip blur

stepping muted ss mirage BSOS (first time i hit that.. didnt mean to mute it, it just happened naturally. weird.)

stepping clipper>stepping clipper>stepping clipper strongside, stepping clipper>clipper>stepping clipper flip.

hit torque a few times, feel like i have this pretty dialed strongside now.

mmmm thats it. a few +20 tiltless runs and some other good stuff but nothing else new/fantastic.

*edit forgot, i also hit 49 legovers. Yes, i was tempted to say I hit 50, but I hit 49. i fucking dropped on 50. i didnt want to do any more legovers.

Session with emily and jeremy at the shred garage, dat watched and helped me with some stuff for a little while.

whirl>drifter>whirl
ripwalk>ripwalk a few times but not ripwalk>ripwalk>crispy torque like i wanted.

worked on my osis a bit, hit 4 consecutive at most but i know how to fix my flip thanks to jeremy and dat.

practiced my pixie set a little bit earlier today...its like 15% decent on my strongside. hit smear, and dimwalk. tried pixie ducking but only landed a back stall. hit rolling back stall to osis though! it was sick.
dimwalk>ripwalk

some good runs, nothing else inparticular good that i can remember.. .. .. .... oh, oh there was one combo i hit.. ... oh, thats right it was Legbeater>Ripwalk>PDX Torque.

Also drilled blurry whirl for a while, but only hit it THE. so far.

and i left my freshly patched bag at jeremys house. damnit.

underground session at metlox.

played with sam, brett, dave, mark, and chris.
got 2:30 of some ok footage of my friends. going to take more the next few days and put something together.

didnt hit much today, i was helping my friend at one point with mirage, and we were joking around a lot, and it was a big circle. so...sketchy blender, blur>toe drifter both sides is i think the coolest thing i hit. came close to zulu butterfly, gonna hit that tomorrow. oh, i hit backside blur and p torque i think but nothing new. some long tiltless runs also.
having a great time shredding with my friends in socal.

Yesterday was the first session in a while i didnt blog, i played ok. playing everyday right now and its getting pretty hectic. gotta drive 6 hours in the morning back home after this crazy 3 day weekend of shredding. so much shredding. sweet.

today i played with brett dave sam, richard abshire, jason crook, and jeremy. abshire and crook are both amazing, first time shredding with them. Abshire's game is smooth as hell, and crook's style is how i want to play, everything is precise and it looks like every movement is so easy for him.. even crazy complicated shit. really inspiring.

hit paradox dlo bsos for the first time today. (it was my first time hitting it flip at all.)

hit ducking paradox mirage bsos, some good work on my drifters and whirls, and p whirls. hit p torque. going to rest my legs tomorrow, and shred again wednesday.

wednesday im going to hit whirl>drifter>whirl>drifter, and drifter>p drifter>opp drifter>p drifter, drill clipper>ss butterfly>opp butterfly rpt, and hit p whirl>p whirl. also going to drill pdx dlos. and all of my tiltless and guiltless string length too.

annnd hit fairy set>ss mirage once or twice, one or two SUPER good fairy sets and then it went back to shit. got some drilling done on that though. got some drilling done on everything.

sooooooooo much fun.

first solo session for a while.. only lasted like 40 minutes to an hour cus i didnt get enough sleep last night and its hot out.. felt like i was dying out there. managed to hit a pretty decent sick 10 for the tiltless competition.. I think sometime soon im going to try and get as many adds as possible in 10 contacts.. cus i know i can hit better stuff...

clipper>pdx illusion>clipper>pdx mirage>toe drifter>far legover>atw>toe drifter>ss pickup>ducking clipper

nothing serious. cant wait till emily and jeremy are back.

*Edit* review my sick 10, drifters don't have enough delay. will hit it tomorrow smoothly.

funklovesfootbag · Post by **funklovesfootbag** » 24 Feb 2006 19:56

played for another hour with this guy stewart who's been playing for a few months but obviously hasn't been practicing. with my help he hit legover, pickup, atw, pixie, and mirage. god im good.

hit ducking pdx mirage bsos, ducking clipper x3, some infinities, ripwalk bsos... i need to get better.

funklovesfootbag · Post by **funklovesfootbag** » 25 Feb 2006 16:10

solo session. still sick, but.. i can rest after footbag. like right now.
drilled all my 2's, drilled my symp pixies and symp mirages but my legs were hurting and i didnt feel like i had the energy so i stopped..
drilled whirls briefly, toe drifters a bit, toe ducking...
spent most of the time working on my sick 10.. i filmed 2 different ones, which took me about an hour to hit so i hope one of them is clean! haha..

hit whirl bsos and ripwalk in a long run,
clipX5>infinity>osis>clipX5>infinity>clipX5>osis something like this, maybe a few more contacts.

clipper>pdx illusion>atw>clipper>pdx mirage>atw>pickup>legover>butterfly>ducking pdx mirage

I think I expect too much from myself.. I want to be smooth guiltless but i know it's a ways off yet.

funklovesfootbag · Post by **funklovesfootbag** » 27 Feb 2006 21:26

had an hour long session with a new player, so it was mostly me playing for an hour, and he hit toe>toe>toe>toe a few times with really bulky skate shoes. im pretty sure he's gonna buy lavers and start kicking regularly since he seemed pretty into it, and saw me BUST.

ripwalk bsos very clean, some long tiltless runs, p drifter, backside blur,

ducking legover>ducking legover, ducking pickup>ducking pickup
ducking symp mirage, ducking pdx mirage both sides
lots of good tiltless and guiltless drilling.

same ol same ol: footbag rules. my bag got another big hole in it though, I think im going to have to pawn something in order to afford a new one.

*edit* forgot, i also hit eggbeater. i need to get the same motion down for that one i feel like i do something different each time.

funklovesfootbag · Post by **funklovesfootbag** » 01 Mar 2006 00:20

had a long session with emily and jeremy. i hit some cool stuff, i was getting frustrated at first and got really frustrated trying pixie set but still hit some cool stuff.

some good tiltless runs, the one i remember is
clip>far legover>clip>far pickup>clip>pdx illusion>clip>pdx mirage>toe drifter... I forget the rest, but i ended up hitting drifter and whirl bsos in the same long tiltless run.

symp pixie>symp mirage>toe drifter both sides but not bsos
ripwalk>blur
ripwalk>blur>legbeater>osis

flip PS mirage for the first time my first two tries
backside blur... tried flip, cant seem to get the spring i need.
consecutive ducking clippers X4
ripwalk bsos
flip torque and flip toe torque

*Edit* also worked on my osis a bit, hit merkon both sides but not bsos, spinning clipper bsos, and ducking symp mirage.

funklovesfootbag · Post by **funklovesfootbag** » 02 Mar 2006 16:00

played solo for about 2 hours. drilled flip atomic hardcore.. hit legover>legbeater at least 5X on my flipside, and legover>atomsmasher once or twice. played until i thought i was too tired and hungry to play anymore and then i played some more.

legbeater bsos, atomsmasher both sides,flip legbeater>blur

flip dimwalk, i think for the first time. almost bsos but i kept wanting to pixie legover on my strong side for some reason.. my body just flailed itself, i dunno. smear a few times strongside. pixie is getting better slowly but surely.

uhhhh... lots more, got most of the good stuff on film so im gonna edit something up right after i shower and eat!

If you worked at a restaurant, you'd be a bad WAITER! Now we can't have a session tonight, which would have been the perfect day and time for me.

funklovesfootbag · Post by **funklovesfootbag** » 02 Mar 2006 16:47

sorry, had nothing to do all day and figured i should get some drilling done. also i figured you wouldnt want to cruise to santa cruz again today and im strapped for gas money since im buying a bag.
