Palatine was fun, but man were my legs bitching at me. They still are. My shins hurt so bad right now, they did even more when we were kicking though.

Those Palatine kids can sure hit some crazy stuff, they definatly got their game going on over there. I think i'll rest a few days and then come back strong, might get too depressing otherwise. We should kick over there again sometime though.

Will, Reid, hope school's not too rough, and that you find time to kick more than once a week.

I think it's doubtful that Kevin or I will be able to make it back out to Palatine this week, but expect many many visits over the summer. The crew out there really is improving like crazy.

BTW y'all, if you haven't already, then check out the new vid I posted and comment too. I'm sorta pissed tho 'cause I accidently left out this run where I hit pheonix bsos and ripped warrior on one side and then dropped going for ripped warrior on the other side. It was pretty sweet. Maybe I'll just post that run if I get on Kevin's comp tomorrow.

OK I'm out. Later everyone

I don't know if this is the video you guys are talking about. But either way if you haven't seen this then you should. It's pretty funny, made last summer. The shred is sorta shitty, but that one move I hit at the very end is SICK :wink: You'll know when you see it. Later

cinema at it's finest.

I hadn't kicked in a while but I had a getting-back-into-the-groove session yesterday that went pretty well, and then I had a session today with scott that was awesome. Warm weather has finally come to Wisconsin and we can kick outside again. I had some nice long runs with lots of dlos eggbeaters dada curves and spinning osii. Torque to drifter repeat is fun. Hit rubberman again. I should be kicking more often now. Kevin, your screen name is awesome.

Rockey - thanks for the props on the name. let's just say it came to me in a glorious dream, where the footbaging profits from all around the world came together and asked that I accept the alius of a large, whirling being on the footbag forum. Many complements on what sounded to be a most enjoyable run for you; i must say i'm liking the dada's quite nicely myself, after incorperating them into many a run as i kicked with eric yesterday. 'twas most enjoyable

Didn't kick saturday or sunday, too busy with some improv shows and stuff.


On friday I kicked with Kevin. I hit vortex>symposium whirl. Styley and controlled. Not too difficult. Also, I hit many, many toe stalls. MANY

Everytime someone walks by and watches you just pretend like it's a big crowd. That should help.

Anyways I haven't had the time nor motivation to kick that much since spring break. My game has definitely declined recently. Whatever who cares...it's all about the experience anyway.

So yeah, I hit symposium whirling inside on both sides today Will! Plus I hit PS whirling inside on one side. Whoo!!

Yah I'm drunk. Later y'all
