OKay well the idaho jam is over so ill make a brief summary of how it went down!
For me the event really started on tuesday when me and my brother went and picked up Scott Behmer, Hes a way cool guy, and he fun to shred with! We took Scott the the freedom shrequarters, and it was the first time he had been there, so i think that was a neat expierience for him. Anyway, we ended up shredding up a storm with jim/daryl/dylon/and sonny as we always do, and it was a blast. Later after the shred we (me zac Jim and scott) headed up to lake lowell for a nice relaxing swim, needless to say it felt good
. After the swim we say bon voyage to scott and jim and i headed home for the night to relax and stitch.
Wednesday:
Wednesday i really didnt do anything until about 4:30 when we headed out to a local free outdoor concert called "live after five" its pretty cool ive been going there for a couple weeks now, its really fun to kick there, and listen to music. We shredded there with Scott/Daryl/Sonny/and dillon for a while and i got to watch scott hit his longest tiltless run ever (37 contatcs) which is pretty good! Then Jim and Lon came up and asked us if anyone was going to pick up Louis Monhollon (wo0t!) so Jim and Lon headed out to go pick him up, and we continued shredding, we stayed for maybe another half an hour or so and then i went back to my apartment with zac and dillon to eat some food and then to shred it up with louis.
I love louis's style its freaking awesome, I also thank him for helping me out with me zooming set. Anyway we footbagged for a couple of hours and then i stopped and worked on Scotts Footbag that i promised him (well actually i promised him 2 but i only had time to finish one). Then i decided to stay the night at thier house so that my brother could go pickup kyle hewitt the next day and i wouldnt have to bum a ride off of anyone else. The night was insane i think i was up with Scott until 3Am or so playing this stupid marble game that only few people have accomplished (including Kenny Shultz!) Sonny told me and scott that if we finished it we could put our names on the back of it, so me and scott kinda went A.D.D. on it and switched back and forth......we didnt win...(this night anyway). After we had had our share of the game we decided to sleep, but it was kinda difficult with the Genzs kittens constantly attacking you in the middle of the night! I woke up once and one was pee-ing on the couch i was sleeping on....(evil/Cute litte bugger!) and then later on in the night the same kitten pooped on the couch that Scott was sleeping on. It was quite hilarious, execially when they constantly attacked our heads and stuff randomly throught the night (needless to say i only got like 4 hours of sleep)
Thurday:
Me and Scott woke up earlier than everybody else, and i worked on his footbag while he was playing the marble game. Then every once in a while we would switch off and then i would try. at about 10 am i BEAT IT! my name was immortalized with kennys, and then about 20 minutes later SCOTT BEAT IT! I knew it was only a mattter of time before one of us did
anyway after we beat it we set off to beat it backwards ( we did it eventually).
At around noon when everyone had woken up i had a small session with Lon, and Louis, while scott watched (because he injured himself at live after five trying smudge) Then we relaxed and did miscelanous things all day including shredding and whatnot. At about 7-ish pm the Portland shredders arrived and kyle and my brother arrived Good times were had by all, as we all shredded up a storm till about 2:00am. I Got to meet Stefa, he's a really cool guy from germany, i think he's the coolest german i know now
at about 2:30 me my brother and kyle went to my house and went to bed getting ready for the nextday that was ahead.
Friday:
Uh...i think we went to the Genz house at about 12:00pm and everyone was gone except lon and red, everyone left them asleep and went to breakfast, so then we had a small session with lon and we played some 4-square which was really fun. ( i think kyle one the game we played)
Later everyone arrived back and we started to bust out the shred again, but not nearly as hard as the night before ( i think a couple people were sore
) we just kinda hung out until later when the players party was supposed to start, a bunch of people game and jim along with a bunch of other people were playing drinking games, a couple people were playing 4 square, andf the rest of us were eating pizza, it was really fun.
Saturday:
EVENT DAY!
So we headed out to the event site, which was in the middle of downtown and there were SOOOO many people there, and we got a tennis court all to ourselves to shred in, it was awesome. Shred pretty much happened all day, i was in many circles with many people, i cant say one stood out from the other, they were all amazing.
Comps:
i think i did okay in the comps finishing 2nd in rippin run, and i still dont know what i finished in the rest of the competitions but for sick one i hit...
Diving butterfly,ripwalk,spinning osis
and for sick 3 i hit
Ripwalk>Whirl>osis
and my shred 30 kinda sucked, but i might have placed at least 3rd im thinking
Later that night we had a big demonstration on a stage at the event, and red MC'd it, Jim/Lon/Kyle/Nick/Louis/and stefan all tore it up onstage and made the crowd really happy! We went to back to Nampa and went to the players dinner at idaho pizza, it was really awesome!(lon is a master at pacman) and we at tons...and tons...of pizza it was good. Later we went back to the shrequarters and played some footbag, then Stefan busted out hin GLOW IN THE DARK FOOTBAG that he made and we played with it for a while. He had other glow sticks that we would put on our feet to make it easier to see. It was really fun. Then Nick and Zac got this crazy idea and went and bought 50$ worth of Glowsticks 2Glow in the Dark Machettes. We covered ourselves in glow in the dark stuff and proceeded to tear it up........in the dark.....
.... After we were done shredding we took all the glow sticks and bordered the 4 square court with it...now we had glow in the dark 4-square! surprisingly itwas INSANELY more fun than regular 4-square, and we played about 4 rounds of it or so before we got tired.......and This for me was basically the end of the event, because the next day i had to drive kyle home. i left at 2:00pm and got back to boise at around 1:30 am, so it was pretty much just constant driving for me which was kinda lame, but at the halfway mark kyles uncle made me a mean hamburger for the ride home so i was content about everything now that i had a stomach full of burger in me
The next morning I went to the genzs to say bye to Nick and Stefan, but come to find out they left REALLY early so i didnt get to say goodbye to them
we hung out with red and sonny and scott and jim and lon for a while then we shredded, then we went to the lake. It was really cold and i didnt feel like swimming, but Jim and Lon swan after they footbagged on the dock for about an hour or so. It was fun. Later that day Scott got a phone call that his flight was canceled and he was put on an earlier one, so i drove him to his flight as fast as i could and luckily he made it (it was close!) So thats pretty much the event for me it was fun and exciting and i wishi could do it again!
:D:D:D
I will post again soon about how i did in the comps as well as a general sumerazation of me and my kicky-bag abilities
14 contact unique tiltess/guiltless/tripless( i started with a tripless trick)
sorry 
we hung out for a couple of hours and then we got another call from the vegas shredders ben and evan that they too needed a ride (3:00 am by this time) so we went and got them, and soon after went to sleep, even though it was kinda hot in the room i slept pretty well.
) It seems like no matter how i work it, or try to all my good friends move away, or in this case i moved away, and this isnt just as of recent, but my whole life my good friends leave, i just look at it as another one of these situations, but hopefully i will be able to visit him soon. oh yeah....and kyle too
