Alright....

Someone is gonna have to break it to you

You're "toe grifter" is a refraction..

Your drifters and pdx drifters are just osises.

Drifters and Grifters have a dexterity in them.

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 19 Aug 2006 11:29

lol, i understand that now....my grifter has a dex though!!!! just take a look, im not sure i understand how to dex the bag and then clipper or whatever...on the same leg, it doesnt make any sense in my mind.

zeroman13 · Post by **zeroman13** » 19 Aug 2006 11:31

For drifter and grifter the bag ends up going in front of your setting foot, not behind.

HG · Post by HG » 19 Aug 2006 11:45

refraction is technically not a dexing move.

just some advice:

when you watch vids, really pay attention and try to call out the moves (in your head ) as they r hit

idk..i didnt see a dex in those dude but what makes his toe grifters a refraction cause its not a butterfly, but id just like to see the job's for it, are you still gonna enter ben?

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 19 Aug 2006 13:40

yea, i just entered it like that and told him whatever i did...enter me as that, i honsetly dont care...im not sure what you mean, infront of my setting foot, confusing. i'll try to learn. thanksfor all the help guys. i'll post some more vids maybe tomorrow so you can help me again, that would be nice.

did, anyone like the editing? lol.

does anyone know where i can find some solid vids of grifters and drifters? and slowmo too if possible?

and hey, im just happy i did anything, fine, i did an osis, hah, sweet! i'm just trying to have fun.

drifter

EDIT:arghhhhhh!!!!! Henry beat me to it

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 19 Aug 2006 13:54

uhh, yea, thats the video i learned from....

i see no difference except that he is clippering the bag a lower than i do. I think i see a little difference though, my video just looks like im not dexing it.

EDIT: boys, you dont have to compete about posting in my blog, lol. i will do just fine with whomever posts first.

the only difference is that they dex with their calf and i dex with my leg.

Drifter

Set>Op In [DEX]>Same Clipper [XBD][DEL]

The move your doing is Osis, and has no dex. You don't turn on Drifters or Grifters either.

PS, Your shoes look nice.

zeroman13 · Post by **zeroman13** » 19 Aug 2006 13:58

I rpt my original question, does the bag go behind your setting leg or in front of it?

thats exactly what i do, i set it, go over it from in to out then i clipper it across my body...exactly.

Matt K · Post by **Matt K** » 19 Aug 2006 14:08

No, you don't have a dex. You shouldn't be turning at all for a Drifter. Can you do a Clipper Set Mirage? If you know what I mean, you do that same motion, except instead of finishing on Toe, it would be on that side Clipper.

mc · Post by mc » 19 Aug 2006 14:12

here's the differences. the bag is also going behind your support leg, not just your dex leg. It has to be in front of your support leg before you catch it. also, you're catching the bag before it's in clipper position. Believe me, those posting to correct you are not trying to fool you or mistaking what you've done.

your grifter is refraction, your drifter is osis. I remember last I saw you, you couldn't do either of those moves, so it's a step forward in that respect. Maybe next time we get together, I can skool you on proper drifters. you've got really big dex windows, so I'm sure you'll be able to do it with some practice once you've seen what's really going on.

believe me, what Matt K is describing isn't "exactly" what you're doing.

picture a complete, clean mirage, and instead of catching it on the set foot, you catch it on the clipper of the dex foot after the bag has passed in *front* of the set leg (not behind, as you do).

Good luck, you'll hit it. you just haven't yet. no big deal.

thaks guys, that helps a lot. i will keep on trying these moves untill i know that i'm doing it. thats all for now, untill tomorrow. peace.

I'd like to add that refractions and oses are pretty cool, too. Just a bit of positive in this page of sad.
