Will Rockey visits U of I

Post by Not-so-ripped Warrior »

Will visited U of I a couple weeks ago for a weekend of drinking during our Unofficial St. Patrick's Day celebration. This footage is from a short session we had the night before this madness began. Enjoy!

I realize that a second camera angle would have definitely made for a more asthetically-pleasing video, but oh well. Comments are welcome of course!

Very nice to see new faces! I like your shred - Eric and Will definately have cool style and nice move variety! During the video I just realized how much I love gyro mirages midrun. So smooth.
Thanks for the video!

Wow! I could watch you guys shred forever.
Both Sides Posse!
You all have really awesome, unique styles! (And trick selection!! Stepping whirl, vortex, eggbeaters...so good!) I thought that your style, Eric, reminded me of Jon Negala(?) of CIC in the last video; this time you remind me of Scott Bevier. Will reminded me of a combination of James Risden and Bryan Fournier.
Awesome shred, awesome music, awesome style, awesome tricks!!!!
I can't wait to see more -- I was upset when it ended :(

Nice video.

Will has some really nice guiltless game... I liked some of the runs.

And Eric's Whirling Swirl looks jolly well.

It was nice to see you shreding...

Greats.

8O Thanks Erik, that is like the best compliment ever. Bevier is awesome. That just made my day :D

And Eric (Bishup) it would be awesome if you did make it out to the Chi-ca-ga area some time this summer. You could shred with our whole crew. Oh and speaking of Reid I just kicked with him last night and the camera was on so expect another vid (relatively) soon.

Thanx for all the comments guys!
