I've never been lucky before... maybe my luck will change now :o I'd be happy to put it through the paces and give a write up on them :wink: (shameless, I know)

Your bags are sweet-ass looking man. So consistent! I hope to shred one of your bags one day too :) I look forward to reading how they play, has anyone written up about them anywhere? I've just started stitching recently, maybe we can trade in the future.

Get ready to have your ass handed to you on a plate in the cricket, AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!! ;)

HOLY SHIT... I got my lavers today :D there are sweet as I love em :D i don''t want to cut the shit out of them so I'm not gonna lol, The toe box is fine for me anyway and i don't like toe walls so i'll just play in out the box lavers lol

also im making more bags, I'm hoping to get a few off to kickass2 :D

I've got a really bad in grown toenail which hurts, shreading today was a bitch as when i land on my left foot it would pull the skin and it feels like 1000 needles going into the end of your toe, but i stop, push through the pain and go again lol NOTHING WILL STOP ME SHREDING ON MY ONLY DAYS OFF LOL

Still can't hit anything :( i should have never taken a few off for work but i hope to have it all back soon :D any tips would be great on the basics as nothing having someone to play along side with is starting to suck and i know im picking up bad form/habbits

Oh well one day lol

I've ordered more laver lo's :D the ones i got are 2 sweet to cut so i'll have shred pair, chillen pair that i can do a little shred in too :D lol... then i've also got my modded leather as a back up :D

I'm starting from scratch again.... I've just ordered a mr sandbag and I've started reg sessions as from today, at least an hour a day (but prob more) it must be better then the hour a week i was doing lol I couldn't hit anything shreding like that.....

mirage (setting from right only)
Pixie bs
spinning

Schooling:

All the above and
Legover

New bag:

Image

Ok today has been all over the place:

First most my pictures are down as i've changed them all into a new folder on photobucket and can't be arsed to relink them ALL lol

This morning I had a shit session, well it started off really really bad, couldn't hit anything, even toe stalls thats how low i was but towards to end i was hitting consistant clippers and found that i can hit more moves from clip rather then toe.... so after a few attempts i had clip > legover bs down solid and clip > illusion and clip > pickup to about 50 bs :D so i was buzzin

Afternoon session went bad too lol firstly i took my camera out to record my session but the batt died, then i couldn't hit shit again, then i started hitting stuff but somehow managed to kick my most choice bag into the drain where i couldn't get it back :( and to top it off i landed on my bad toe while trying a clip > spin > dlo so i was not amused :(

but everyone has a bad day yeah? cos i ain't giving up :D

that was my day

peace!
