Jon is on his way to my place right now. (Saturday) So if you want to play today, you should call Camille, myself, or reply here!

PS, if you live in GTA and don't show up- I hate you. I'm sorry, but that's how I roll.

...ok, ok. I don't hate you Toronto.

Just had a great session with Taishi. I hit dada curve

, my first tap

, osis > osis

, and lots of flip clippers

. Taishi hit his usual volley of awesome shit that I can't name.

Would anyone like to play with him and I on Monday night? 9:30 ish? U of T/downtown area?

Thanks Mike!

Awesome video Taishi! Why not post it in the video section? But, because you are living in Toronto, you have to say that you are representing FAT!

And for sure, let me know about tonight. I'm still up for a session.

Holy!

I'm here in Toronto! Anything going down tomorrow (Thursday) morning / early afternoon? I'd love to have a session with whoever's available! Let me know, I'll check in soon!

Hey Josh! Taishi and I are playing tonight (wednesday) at 9:30 at U of T. I can also play thursay morning from 10am to 1pm if the session is near U of T (its close to my house and I'll need time to race home, shower and get to work by 2).

Mike

Thanks again Mike for letting me know about the session last night!
It was great to see you two... although my legs might need a week to rest now!

Whirls felt better than usual last night. Spinning much worse. I guess those are the breaks though. My next mission is to develop flip fairy, I suppose, can't go on being a one-sided setter. Hmmm, DLOs need work too, again more so on flip. I still feel like Torques and Drifters are the biggest holes in my game... being non-existant... heh. Well, at least there's always something to look forward to!

Anyway. I miss shredding with people more. I can't wait for school to start up again. I'll be playing a lot more than I am now, and with Greenwood coming back soon, Ill be anxious to keep learning more from him. Woo.

Hey Toronto-ites. I'll be in town this weekend through til Tuesday night. If anyone wants to shred on Monday, please post time and location here. Unfortunately, I cannot play on the weekend since I'm helping my parents pack and move but Monday will be fine at any time.

BuckRuckus · Post by **BuckRuckus** » 14 Jul 2006 08:14

I can for sure shred on Monday. But as usual, work gets in the way, so I can only play from 10am-1pm or 9:30pm-midnight.

Hey Peng- they are moving? That sux cuz they live literally right across from me... I live across the big field/park behind those buildings on Eglinton. My street is Gatesview Ave. I don't know if I'll be around this weekend, but I should be in the mornings/afternoons. Give me a shout if you feel like taking a break from packing (416-602-1985) and we'll shred it up. If not, I'll try to make it to Monday's sesh.

Rain delayed my work today, so I was able to do a morning session today here in Alliston. And I'm so happy, it turned out really well.

Highlights:

Phoenix! Both sides!!!

And also, Spinning is starting to really break through for me!

Spinning Butterfly first time ever both sides, same with Merkon.

6 new accomplishments, including my first flip 5... life is okay after all!

I can't wait to see you all soon! Great to hear there might be shred in TO this weekend!

P.S. The other day I hit my first Blurry Whirl! I've now done it a few times, but only footed my flipside... a work in progress!

Props from Alberta!

I miss footbag and all you wonderful shredders....

....but i'll be back in action and shredding hard in August!

BuckRuckus · Post by **BuckRuckus** » 15 Jul 2006 12:32

See you in August, Adam!

As for the rest of you - who's up for playing this Sunday? Maybe in the evening to avoid the heat?

Pengu · Post by **Pengu** » 16 Jul 2006 10:35

Footsack tomorrow 10-1 Mike and anyone else who can make it?
I like morning shred. It's not quite so hot then. UofT somewhere? Someone gonna meet me? I don't remember where we shredded last time.

BuckRuckus · Post by **BuckRuckus** » 16 Jul 2006 10:44

Sounds good Peng! U of T area ok for you?

And what about this evening? (sunday). Anyone feel like it? I'll be playing from 8 till dark.

Pengu · Post by **Pengu** » 16 Jul 2006 11:51

Yeah Mike. UofT area is fine. Meet me at a subway station? My cell in case, 613-539-1513

BuckRuckus · Post by **BuckRuckus** » 16 Jul 2006 16:23

Ok. For anybody else who wants to play, we are meeting at Queens Park subway station at 10 (near the toll collection booth), then will be playing at a spot near by. Feel free to call me in the morning, or meet us there.

Anybody wanting to make the trek down to Mississauga to come play with me, gimme a call. 416-275-9470. I'd like to come to Toronto, but it's hard to do with my stupid job.

BuckRuckus · Post by **BuckRuckus** » 19 Jul 2006 08:53

I just had a great solo session this morning. Still working hard on my clippers and osi. Starting (finally) to work on butterfly. My goal is to have super-smooth clippers and hit infinity by end of summer. It feels like it shouldn't take that long, but my progress is always slow and steady.

Dan, your job sounds crazy! Is it true that you work 7 days a week? I feel your pain dude, but I don't think I'll be making it to 'sauga in the near future.

Can anyone play morning or night this week

How about this weekend? Unless people are up for a big session, I'll probably go to Hamilton.
