all this should be in our crew blog, but :
ITS ON !!!
at the hunters round six .
Why does Daryl always write so much in here ?
Allrighty .
I'm back in training, and i need to train alot. alot !!! I had such a good phase
until i got injured, lots of new tricks, solid combos, even some bop progress
and i was ready to take off.
Having to stay away from shredding made me think a lot about what i want
in footbag, and now, with all my faculties kinda intact, i realize how much
i need to drill and sweat to get anything near good.
In the last sessions i didnt feel like progressing at all, it was more a kind
of reconquista with some one-hit-wonder type highlights thrown in between .
Its like, i cant be fooled by the "trick-high" anymore - before my injury,
hitting single moves, that i consider big, or nailing some decent combos
was the shit for me. It kept me going.
Now i really want to work on owning all these previous personal highlights,
make blur>atom>legbeater standart = availiable at all times .
I realized what i need to do skool, and thats everything apart from sets -
i need to skool them aswell, especially stepping - but its bops, downtime
and dexless that need major work .
i will fight my way through back to serenity. trust me
Today i hit tap>dlo bothsides and ss toe drifter bs

Today was sweet , the Hunters and i had a good, productive session
in the failling evening light and i got to see some very nice combos:)
I went through the whole program, trying the same combos over and over
and when we went for runs, i was earning some fruits
Ducks and spins still need a lot of attention, but i could feel some
progress when i was hitting merkon>smear quite effortlessly
Also the dlo work strats to pay off, they seem much more on point now,
i almost hit three in a row , bsosing them aint no problem anymore -
its fun - the high lift part is the best
All this is also helping my drifters, the form is getting tighter and
i can use em mid combo a bit more
.
Hopefully i can make this positive trend continue, am besten sind
dann auch nochn paar whirls mit bei, und bessa stepping !
smear>tap>butter>pdx mirage rpt ; diving clipper bsos ; drifter bsos
( these arent new, but they arent hit often either...)
pixie clipper>ducking legover>dimwalk
ducking clip x 3>spinning clipper
spinning clip>pdx mir>butter>spinning clip>pdx mir
flip shmoe>butter>stepping legover>butter>rip>catch
atomsmasher>smear>dlo>butter>pdx mirage>run with flip dlo, tap ect
double switch>drifter
atomic gyro toe>butter>run
flip dod
and i was maaad close to blurriest and tapping dlo....

at the moment they seem to own me...sweeet backflippin jesus, footbag is so much work .
the last two days i was mainly skooling single tricks-
dlo, drifter, whirl, osis, ducking clipper - and spinning .
i also remembered some of my more peripheral tricks and skooled these
a bit aswell : diving mirage, gyro mirage, parkwalk, spinning mirage...
i havent thought about spinning butter for ages, so hitting that first try
on saturday was such a good feeling
i love spins, the set, the motion...cant get enuff of that
what else was there ? osis>butter, butter>ss butter>infinity,
butter>whirl, butter>dlo, tap>tapping pick up>butter.
on monday i wanna skool stepping and atomic and i'll try
Szymons drill !

today i played crap on both sides , everything seemed so hard or
wasnt working at all despite a few decent bop runs and hitting
tapping pick up>quantum legover bs.
and i found the key to better my flip stepping, but thats it for
the good news.
my legs were stiff and hella disobedient and expectations too high -
plus i really need a new warm up scheme .
well, it cant be christmas everyday, can it ?

Bea-trickz and me met up for some evening shredage - sometimes these
one on one sessions are the best and i really love kicking with her :
concentration, attention, support = the ideal soil fo growing freshness
We warmed up well - chatting and kicking first, long tiltless runs later
and some experiments to round stuff off . I would do good remembering
that warm up style, since my expectaions can be somewhat silly at times.
Especially when i wasnt able to play for a month and i start sessions
trying tap>smear>plo rpt , only to pissed of for the rest of the session
beacuse i most likely wont manage to nail it straight away .
Today everything was feeling so sweetly different and i had some good laughs too.
While having a good time hitting good bop trings, i mentioned to Bea
how embarrassing the lack of fairy skills in our teams is and how she
would go about them . She picked up the bag and said : " well, i guess
its like a pixie, just the opposite direction 2 minutes later, she hit
both fairy ss pick ups ...inspiring, to say the least !
Then we drilled stepping and i managed to hit all my usual moves,
some bsos, without fighting . That felt really good and i love the feel
of shmoe>smear ...
Bea wanted to atomic for a bit, mkay, and i started with tap>tap bs.
Everything worked, legbeater>pdx mirage, tap>tapping pick up,
smashers - i even hit both tapdowns straight away
Best feeling Surprize : a chin high atomic set both sides
When we were about to go for some runs, this guy walks by and
expresses mad interest, asking alot of questions that made sense
and plus he kinda treated us like we were se kool kids
.
That was nice of course, but it kinda diverted the session energy,
and soon later we stopped playing and left the spot for some soup .
Highlightz :
butter>shmoe>smear bs, sidewalk>pdx mir>butter>sidewalk, blur>butter>blur, ingyro mirage, inspinning mirage, 16 bops
NU SHIZZLE :
fairy ss pick up
diving legover ( fr. clp )
atomsmasher>atomsmasher>atomsmasher
toe blur>toe blur no seal grrrrrrrrrrrrr
barrages
nuclear ss pick up twice
thank you footbag .

Go FOOOOOTBAG !
Our latin teacher build a time machine and...well, he didnt show up,
so i went down to the race tracks for sum shredation .
I was a good boy and remembered the warmup
, but i dindt
do any butter>pdx orgies . I worked on that ss clip>osis drill instead .
3 meager reps. meh.
Then stepping . There are so many things to keep in mind at once,
its a godddamm nuisance : a nice clipper to begin with, staying over
the bag and staring at it - not for to long tho'. Then the main part -
pop the bag st8 up whilst getting that thigh outta way quick>move .
Wow, so many places for a fuck up...incredible...
It worked though . After this sweaty experimentation, i skooled toe blur
and toe guiltless combos .
Results :
shmoe>smear>butter>shmoe>smear>butter
tapping pick up>plo>plo>tapping pick up ( i hit that twice, but i failed
to add a third plo )
i go grocery shopping now and hopefully i will shred more later....
there is a lot of stuff literally beggin to be hit

Thanks you guys for these comments ! .

I started of with a lot of kicks - i never count them since i'm not aiming at high
numbers, but at being comfortable with them . flip inside>flip outside is
my weakest kicking pattern for sure, but i mustered some concentration
and got a lil better at that.
Next on the menu was ss clip>butter rpt and the same thing with osis instead
of butter - both felt good, but i need to skool the living hell outta these .
The gist of this sesh was dexless though - i think i did more spins today
than in the whole last year
!
butter>spinning clip,dimwalk>spin clip and butter gyro mirage a lot and bs
to start out with.
So fun the only minus was that i forgot to improve my merkons ...
Then i skooled da real dexless shizzle :
diving, ducking and spinning clippers in all combinations, starting from
all kinds crazy sides . confidence is on its way
I had to slow down and find sumtin else to skool after 25 minutes,
cause i got so flippin dizzy - i spot the bag wrong sometimes, i guess .
So i kooled of with some butter>whirl thingy, which went ok, then barrages .
Those were mostly crap, if i hit them at all ( but i skipped my tiltless during warm up and there wasnt too much other type dexing either..) .
Time was almost up, i checked my list and there were two elements
still untouched yet . I started with swirl, cause those really need work .
At the end of this segment i could handcatch 7 out of ten .
The last five minutes i tried some drifters. meh. same excuse as before.

Ahhh, i wish you could made it sun ! There was some good shit going
- my clipper game is on its way up : more infinities, more dexless = fun
- i had some nice runs with good, low level variety
- more 4's and 5's
- i love the lift on dlo
I have no memory of combo details - but thats ok, its pretty much the same moves all the time, just in different alignment
There was one run with a lot of stepping that i liked and once i started out
with atomsmasher>dlo>smear>run . That felt good .
30 tiltless
7 flip taps in one go after Max requested less muted taps on my flip
ducking clipper>ducking ingyro toe
pixie ducking legover
spinning clip>ducking clip repeat
