FIRST DAY OF STEEL CITY SHRED OFF

I had a blast kickin' with a lot of people! It was pretty nice outside, so it was cool to be gettin' some fresh air and shreddin'.

Watched the competition which was nuts! Caleb Abraham, Scott Bevier, David Clavens, John Mahood...and more!

Rippin' Run is definitely a sweet form of competition that I believe should be used more often in future events.

I definitely played hardcore today

Highlights:
-Pdx. mirage BSOS
-PLO BSOS
-Far Pick-up
-Pdx. Illusion

-long strings
-flowing style

I can't wait for tomorrow! Another day of Steel City Shred!

Last day of Steel City...

was very chill and we all just played a lot. A lot of people walked by us so lots of exposure was happenin'.

My legs were really sore from yesterday's playing so I didn't do too much.

After 5 or so hours of shred...Steel City was over

Caleb did an awesome job holding this event and I definitely had an awesome time! I really hope they do this again!

for those who are wondering...

YES! I still play footbag!

Update of what's been happening:
Summer ended on August 23rd for me and that same day I have grown up an incredible amount. Ever since then I have been doing school work and work-work (busser at Smokey Bones - Grill & Bar). That's my life right now: work with a side dish of party.

The other day I kicked with Rob and man are we rusty! I actually didn't do too bad...I can still string but my pixies are so awkward feeling. I actually can still hit pdx. mirages! My ducks were clean like no ot her that day too!

Rob and I agreed to footbagging every Monday (that day may change because I'm taking driver's ed on mondays and wednesdays untill November). We atleast will footbag once every week, while I'll probably have 2 side sessions.

Footbag! I have not left ye!

How long ago since the last time you played?

JFootbagger · Post by **JFootbagger** » 24 Oct 2006 15:24

Unfortunately I have not played in over a month. School, work, and now driver's ed has really been killing me. But once Driver's ED is over, I should be getting back into the shred (ironically, I'll be getting into it in the beginning of winter

) Anyways, keep shreddin' guys! I can't want to start kickin' again!

The wait is over, I have finally gotten back into footbag...

Mondays, Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays (if I have enough time)

Those are the days that I am now going to be kicking on.

Here's an over-view of how my level of game is currently (and how it's changed)

clippers - flipside is rusty along with consecutive clipper>op>clippers

All of my 2's (atw, mirage, legover, pickup, illusion, etc.) - can still do them all

Clipper 2's - can still do them all

Pdx. Mirage - can still hit them, but kinda awkward and strenuous

PLO - really have gotten rusty. I think this is 'cause my Pixie set has lost
it's snap

Butterfly - haven't tried them yet

Infinities - haven't tried them yet

It's time to get back into shape...
