Good shred. Your 2's and 3's are very solid. Liked the part where you got kicked out of that one place.

One thing I noticed ,and I used to do this too until I started workin' on it a few weeks ago... you need a move to get you from clipper to toe, other than a toe stall. Your infinities are solid, but when you want to go back to your toes, the only move you do is a toe stall. Tilt

Getting some solid moves down that get you from clipper to toe without tilting (or guilting) will improve your game a lot.

So my suggestion to improve your tiltless/guiltless foundation is to school these moves:

Clipper set mirage (most importantly)

PDX mirage (You've got the BO, work on the P)

Clipper set DLO (I saw some thin DLO's in there, but go for it)

And if you want bubba's and clipper set pickups too.

Having clipper set mirage down has allowed me to put together very long tiltless strings (PR is 17, need to hit 20). Highly recommended.

Wow. The videos just keep getting better and better. I had to laugh when the Man came and tried to lay down some jive authoritative hoo ha on yer shred. Props for giving him something to yell at and then coming back. And ah yes. The shred. I'd agree with the above post with a transition between clip and toe. Far legover and pickup are a possibility besides clip set mirage. And I was really impressed by ducking pdx mirage and whirl tightly woven into bsos. . . not sure if I should be all that impressed now that I see you improving so fast. Excellent on all accounts.

Editing:
You had some cool shots like the back of the lavers shot, but some of them (most noticibly that one) went on for too long.
The rest of the editing looked really good

.

Shred:
Your butterfly and osis look pretty solid, but I would highly recomend not double stepping when you do infinities, and remember when you catch an osis your stalling foot should not be crossbody, as soon as the bag hits your foot you pivot and then your stalling foot goes crossbody, this helps you look at it longer and makes osis more consistant.

You have some cool strings but they are ruined by all the toe stalls! To remidy this you should work on putting more tiltless in you strings (mirages, illusions, far legovers, near pickups) and definatly school pdx mirage till you can hit it out of osis and butterfly easily.

You have a good number of 3adds that you can hit consistantly in strings, and they generally look very well executed, this will help a lot when you go guiltless, but you can't go guiltless till you've gone tiltless, gotta lose the toe stalls

.

Other:
Though it was funny, acting like that toward members of the community is a good way to give footbag a bad reputation like what's happened to skating.

You remind me of this kid "Snowy" I know.... but anyhow, um yeah the laver scene felt like it could have been cutoff at the first transition in the music. Nice paint job though. I liked the different spots all around town, maybe theme them a little better, instead of jumping from place to place and then back put all the clips from the same spot in the same segment. I'm digging the enthusiasm. As for the shredding keep it up, its looking good.

I really liked the intro to the shred, as far as the shred concerned I can't say anything people haven't already said. Listen to them!

Props for:
Clipper set Diving Mirage
Whirl BSOS
Standing up tall against that monkey kicking you out

Suggestions:
As the other persons say about getting out clippers you could maybe try doing Stepping Opp Toe, this will also help you when you wonna incorporate ripwalks and blurs.
Put in some ATWs and other simple tiltless, many of your runs looks alike.

I always have that firmly in mind. this may ruin the video slightly, but I did ask that guy to come and pretend to kick me off the premesis... the clip of me shredding there again was filmed before I got kicked off

thanks alot for the comments! I am aware of my toe stalls. thanks alot for the advise. I'll make a solid effort to get rid of them.

As far as holding the "heal shot" for too long, I was trying to take up enough time so that my shred would start right at the moment the music jumped into gear... I prolly should have split it into another clip of something though.

thanks again!

All in all a very good video

The editing was good and artsy, like the lavers shot and the elvis outro (

)

The shred was excellent, all of your 2 adds like the clipper were solid. The 3's were good too but I enjoyed your 2's more.

The fake scene with you getting kicked out was ingenious... nice job on that!

***** five stars, Keep up the Shredalicious work!
