So i had a session by myself,hit some stuff
legover>atw out x7
pick up>atw in 4x
illusion 5x on flip
hit dlo once
clip set symp mirage bs
flip atw out 10x
and some other stuff that i didnt write down.I think ill shred again today.
Tomorrow im going to shred outside!

For the first time in my life

Kljopa · Post by **Kljopa** » 09 Apr 2006 05:12

Yeah my first session outside today

It was awesome!But the strong wind created inconvinience but i got used to it.
Worked on my tiltles the best run was with 15-20 tiltles tricks and in the middle i did butterfly>pdx mirage.Also a good run was which ended with butterfly>pdx mirage>butterfly

Outside rules i spent 2 hour's training,warmed up with kicking at home,stretched and went to shred

Kljopa · Post by **Kljopa** » 09 Apr 2006 10:44

Wow it's been a long time since I've posted in here. Way to keep the blog going. It's nice to read the info you all have posted.

Anyways, I've had to take a short break from footbag due to illness, lack of space, and then lack of sanity (my professors are killing us with exams and papers). But things are beginning to look up (though I still have a paper and a test on Friday).

I've had a number of solo sessions (dorm room style) just trying to get back the little skill I had. It didn't take as long as I thougth it would. Now I'm just trying to work my flipside (which is horrible now). That's my main focus. I find it's too easy for me to work my strong side because it feels good to hit stuff, but I know deep down that I have to work my flipside if I"m going to get anywhere. ::sigh:: oh well.

Well that's all for now.

Peace and newby love,
Tricia

your getting into stitching eh? thats pretty cool, me and kyle hewitt have been attempting to stitch for a quite a while now, mabye we can trade when you think your ready!

Lately ive been trying to learn swirls, and ripwalk suprisingly im REALLY close i just cant finish it off X.x, hopefully today i WILL land one of these, i would rather land swirl but ripwalk would still be f'ing amazing

Kljopa · Post by **Kljopa** » 10 Apr 2006 07:36

Wow cool it will be mega props for you if you land a swirl! That's such a cool trick!I didnt try any of these yet im working on basic's dunno why but i want to do 50 tiltles contact's in bothsided style

Yeah we could trade bag's!Maybe in a few weeks i plan stitching everyday for an hour or two,btw bought the material and thread's today,so im ready to stitch!

Zeb Jackson · Post by **Zeb Jackson** » 10 Apr 2006 07:43

Kljopa · Post by **Kljopa** » 12 Apr 2006 09:07

Hey all

had a cool day today.Toke part in a transaliton competion,i had to transale from english to russian.A girl was reading sentence's and i had to translate right after.Well i managed to do pretty good but not so

still it was fun.But i had to wait so loooong for my turn,good thing there were two really cute girls-student's i had a nice chat with them

.
After the competition i stretched at home and went shreding.Toke a little radio with me,so now i have music when i shred outside!As i was going to the stadium i met my naiber from the first floor,he was like where are you going, to train said I ) i said ill show him what i will do.So im like in pant's doing toe>op toe and then did i mirage he was already like omfg

.Then i toke the pant's of and started doing all kind's of tiltles stuff,he was impressed!

Also while i was training a lil kid with a football came over and started hiting it against the wall and later his dad comes and ask's me am I doing it(shreding) to improve my football skill's im like no it's a sport.He told me he know's and even said that they play over a net too, i was surprised.He saw it on tv.

About the stuff i did
lots n lots of tiltles strings
For the first time linked dlo! I started with lo>dlo>mirage and then more tiltles like 6 contact's and 2 btfly's.It was cool

Learned to spin

made me dizzy almost fell trying to hard

Btw the first 14th paneled bag i stitched yesterday turned out to be sooo small like a penny, i gave it to Zenja she said she will hang it on her keys

Kljopa · Post by **Kljopa** » 13 Apr 2006 11:35

Hmmm today was a cool session,though i had to stitch my friend a footbag really really fast before the session.The first session with someone outside ) Ramil and Ilja are going to freestyle too

.Ilja is working on his basic stall's he managed to do a weak cliper today and Ramil is going a bit faster he did mirage for the first time today!
While we trained some lil kid's came over we talked to them,gave em bag's to tryout a kid managed to do a toe stall,they will buy my 14th panel bag's tomorrow(two of them) the third will buy on sunday.I will sell them for 2 usd.And another guy ordered a bag.I've haven't been stitching for a week and im already going to get some cash for it

that's cool.
I've schooled titles today, i hit more bsos butterfly's in my strings that feel's cool,makes my string's more interesting.I didn't hit any moves lately,though i didnt try to, i want to get my basic down really good.
So i have to stitch two bag's till tomorrow 6 o'clock.I will do one now and one tomorrow after breakfast.
Im really happy Ilja and Ramil are geting serious about shreding! I will have someone to shred with

Oh yeah and my mom gave me money to buy laver's! So im sending them tomorrow wooooot

Kljopa · Post by **Kljopa** » 14 Apr 2006 08:09

I had 2 session's today,worked on ducking,spinning and other stuff.
Sold my first footbag for 2 usd

it feel's good.The bank was closed today so couldn't exchange money and send it.
Hit double switchover today,decided to show to a friend and did it from my first try

he was amazed.Did ducking toe b2b

i couldn't duck before,ducking is really fun and spinning too.My shred became more interesting with this stuff
