I suppose when you compare 2 inches to 1 inch, yours would look much more impressive.

Jeremy · Post by **Jeremy** » 16 Jul 2006 22:39

Yes, almost 4 times as large as yours.

I played soccer again on Sunday and played well. We only lost 4-2 and I had a good time. I felt more confident and attacked a lot more. My skills seem to be getting better every time I play. Also had a kick on Saturday which was good.

R u playing good footbag jeremy.

Jeremy · Post by **Jeremy** » 17 Jul 2006 21:09

Sometimes. Not as good as I would like maybe - too distracted with other things and maybe not fit enough. But parts of my game are definitely getting better - ie. non shuffle stuff so I'm seeing some improvement but slooooow. I came ridiculously close to a dream drill the other day - blur>dominatrix>sailing butter>blur>dominatrix>drop - I was so annoyed but anyway - it was like the first time in about 2 years that I've drilled any sailing stuff.

Well big news for footbag (Hopefully).

Today I finally submitted a proposal to fully update the freestyle rules - basically bringing in the inclusion of the olympic judging format, sick 3 and 1 rules and the inclusion of x-dex. It's a huge document and I had to spend 90 minutes today editing it but it's finally finished. Hopefully it will pass (fingers crossed) - it's only taken me slightly over a year to achieve

. The meeting is on Wednesday - damn I wish I was there.

Well you know where I stand - I really hope it gets through and am appreciative of your work.

Thanks Dyalan

Just randomly want to say that I did my tax return today and I should be getting $2,200

. Huzzah for me. Should make me completely debt free and give me some money to go to the next aussie comp in Sydney

. I rock.

Wow that sailing drill is huge, do you think anyone else has hit that?
If you did it with Fogs instead of Blurs, that would make it suuuper good with all triple dexes...

props on the tax return, that's plenty of money

Thankyou Jeremy. You work very hard for footbag.

I'm getting $700 on my tax return, which should just about get ME out of debt. Thanks government for your compulsory savings program!

Been playing a little lately. Funny thing happened on Saturday. I was trying to hit ps whirl>spinning whirl>mobius - which I guess is a fairly easy combo but hard for me because the second two moves are both flip and my flip mobius in particular is very weak. Anyway I was getting pretty close and this couple (early to mid 20s) walked past, came back and asked "wow, can you hit your mom?". This being the second time I had been asked this question recently I quized them on how they knew that move but they just told me that they knew these things...

. Anyway I couldn't hit it - my board shorts kept messing up the atomic set

Also I've hit ripstien twice now but am yet to seal it. Soon.

Played indoor soccer today and lost 5-1. I am the only fit person on my team and was quite frustrating but I played ok - set up our goal and probably should have scored more. I will try and play more selfishly and shoot more next time

. Anyway it was still fun and good for my fitness. Despite how much I run my ankles and knees feel fine so that's good.

Have lots of bags to make. Also bad news regarding the IFC stuff - there was a few "in principle" agreements but nothing actually decided. This is mainly my fault for being too slow with thigns although the entire freestyle rules + two new extended rules is a fairly large document to edit by yourself cough cough. Anyway it's great that some progress was made and it's only a matter of time before the "olympic" rules and the "sick 3" rules are an actual part of the rule book

.

The lack of communication in the IFPA is really the biggest problem I think and I've been working hard to change that but some people still feel like keeping things secret is somehow a good thing. I wish I knew why this was but luckily there is progress being made in a lot of areas. It's ridiculous how much extra work people uneccessarily create but I guess maybe I just have too high expectations of people. I don't know.

Anyway I have 14 footbags to make

so I can't talk too much.

Atomic symp double down was mentioned in a news article some time ago, probs why ppl ask. Sick move to be able to do.

props on ripstein

hmm,

most likely it's because a I did a few demos at the falls festival in marion bay last year - which attracted (the festival not my demo) about 13,000 people and your mom was one of the moves I talked about a little before hitting. I had worked out that this was probably where people were getting it from but thought the story was better if I didn't mention that

. Oh yeah, and then I found ten dollars just sitting on the ground.

Hey Jeremy make a video please!

Jeremy · Post by **Jeremy** » 26 Jul 2006 22:35

Maybe soon

I had a really good 3 hour session last night so I might try and film some of the new stuff I hit.

More importantly tomorrow I'm going to church

Who would have thought this day would ever come?

Of course I'm going there to worship my own religion (ie. play footbag).

james_dean · Post by **james_dean** » 26 Jul 2006 23:32

I just played footbag at church too!

Jeremy · Post by **Jeremy** » 27 Jul 2006 19:15

Yeah church rocks, there's like a keg and a metal band and a wet t-shirt contest.

james_dean · Post by **james_dean** » 27 Jul 2006 19:21
