well the shred was really good, and i was setting new records, but 2 hours into the shred i felt exptremely tired,and i didnt finish my records, so i think ill just continue where left off tomorrow and finishing it up, i went down on a couple of my records, (2 i think) but it was a dramatic drop whichtells me there somewhat cnsistent which to me is good. some highlights of the shred was:

every string i did was 7-1o contacts which is an almost double improvement for me than in SC were i was getting 5.....if i was lucky lol ]

ill finish the record list for this week tomorrow sometime then post 2 graphs comparing the 2 weeks :D

i had a bunch of really good sessions in the last two days, most of which were by myself at like 2:00 am. but its all good, the best thing im starting to see is my consistency with tricks is starting to increase, which i like aloT! Im noticing that my string length has almost doubled scince SCI which is a HUGE bonus to me, even my sponsor noticed i was getting better, and i think that if a non oriented footbag player notices that your getting better thats saying something.

at about 12:00pm/am tonight i had a session and here were some of the highlights....

Far guay + 10 contact tilt/guilt

string lasting from 8- 16 contacs

Osis X 6 (new record)

refraction> far legover

Far legover X 6 (new record)

Finally landed symp mirage mid string, and dyno mid string

footed Dyno bsos

Butterly>pick up> op butterfly> pickup>rpt X 3

all in all i had some pretty good sessions that lasted about 3 days, adding up to about 12 hours of shred :D

Hey zeb! looks like your doing really well now! Sweet!





How is my 4 panel coming along? :D



The one you sent hasn't gotten here yet. :(


Did you go to the post office and send it by paying them what you needed to? Or did you just put some stamps on an envelope?


Again, the bag hasn't arrived, and i dont think it will if its taken this long :cry:

well we went to a lake near the genz yesterday and it was REALLY hot but we still managed to get a little shred in, jim was hitting insane links as always, and i really didnt hit anything new but i did try new links and got a few, one of them was

Diving clipper>Spinning Toe

Diving Cliper>Spinning Toe> Ducking osis

dexless stuff is fun :D

i think later tonight were going to kick again, its going to be fun.

After we kicked we proceeded to the lake and we swam for a while played a little water 500 and then i had to leave to go scope out an apartment that i will hopefully live at. All in all it was kind of a tiring day, ahh well it was worth it ;)

well i am back from my juant to boise, but fret not i shant be back there ina couple of days, i have have finally found an apartment to stay at. ;)

i havent been shreding to hard lately, but i have been drilling hopefully tomorrow night i can show proof of progress from july 6th to july 28th.
(ill post later)

also :!: :!: :!: : 13 days until the US open i cant wait its going to be a kickass event, and hopefully ill get to shred with tons of people ive never shredded with before!!!!

also if anyone is wondering if they can get a bag from me at the US open (scince i know i have tons of adorring fans) :roll: pm me a message and ill make sure ill get you one, because im only going to bring 10 or 15 bags with me to the event. If you but one from me online they are 20, but if you go to the US open and you have alredy asked me for a bag ill sell it for 15 :D i think 5$ off is a good deal ;), and if you want to trade bags with me i will do that also the colors i have are as follows:

#8221 Marmalade (orange),#9366 Rhapsody (dark blue-ish purple),#2624 Blue Hawaii (light blue),#173-232-58 Small Pony (Cream/Brown pony print), #4529 Petit Pois(light pale green),#3131 Country Cream (tanish white),#6588 Rose Quartz (dark red),#1292 Flash Red(a reallylight red),#4434 Willow (another tanish color),#5408 Jade (dark blue),#5698 Storm (gray, and it also this, so this color would mean longer break in time), #7144 Navy (a blue color thats levi colored), #1248 Bordeaux (a red wine color), and midnight, a stiff black ish color
here is a picture of the bags i make, they are usually slightly larger than a golf ball, and are decently heavy, (around 50- 60 grams)

well, i have been at work for the most part of the day, so i just decided to tke my juggling balls with me and drill a little,

i drilled Reverse Cascade, because it still seems weak to me, and mills mess, as well as orbit, they are all starting to become a little consistent, and im starting to learn columns. I can do the one handed 2 ball column, but when i throw in the other hand, it all goes to crap, ahh well such things happen when you try for the first time :D :D
