Zeb,Zac, and kyle at the freedom shrequarters

Post by Zeb Jackson »

this is a video we made while everyone was at sjff/cornel, we figured we would hold our own mini jam with the 4 of us (including my little bro)
at the freedom shredquarters, me and kyle were playing normal, but zacs ankle was a little messed up so theres not so much from him.

Enjoy :)

Well, I'm watching this at work so sound has gotta be off. I'm probably better off without the Kyle singing part.

Whoever said "Idaho Blows" never met Zeb and Kyle. Fun video! I was excited to see it posted here and downloaded it immediately. When it's people you know, it's just as fun or more than watching a new Vasek or Clavens video.

Commentz!

Zac - You've got some good variety and those double dexes look good. Zeb and Kyle's string length and run ability is definitely better than yours. But I think it's cool that you can hit a wider variety of stuff, so keep doing your thing man :)

Zeb - Solid moves. Your stepping and your osii are looking better and better every time I see them. Some cool links including ducking inside > wrap > symp whirl. Creative! Also your bothsidedness is strong. Would have like to see more of your dexless game ducking/spinning, I hope you haven't been neglecting that, because it's awesome! I would say one area you really haven't explored yet is opening up your toe-to-toe downtime game, it's like 99% pickups. Do more mirages/legovers/illusions, you can't hit DLO and eggbeater without getting those solid first.

Kyle - Kyle Mr. Kyle. Nice fairy set dude 8O Some sweet moves in there. Flip fairy/pixie? Need more'a that left toe dude ;) Some cool moves. Prizops on eggbeater. Isn't that move tons of fun? :) Oh yeah, and Smog was sweet! Your DLOs are really tightening up, that's cool. Stop bailing to far legover though, I do it too :)

Anyway, you guys rule. Thanks for the video. KEEP SHREDDIN'

thanks ben,
lol yeah im trying to develope a good pixie so i can stop bailing to pickup so much, I dont know why i didnt hit any ducking/spinning combos really in this video, but i still drill it regularly ;) thank you for your comment.
Next time i make a video i will make sure theres more of a varietly from me rather than just focusing on what i am working on at the moment :P

Wow, nice guys!! That was fun to watch. Kyle's looking strong with his DLOs and that eggbeater. I could tell there were a lot of epic moments in that sesh. The ripwalk>blur was neat, smog was sweet, I gotta go skool that now tonight. Let's see...what else...I know there's something...

OH YEAH! Zeb's symp whirling motion clipper keep! Good move, that's the first time I've ever seen that! :P

Haha, no fo realz though, great vid, I miss you little crazy guys.

Hey,

You guys are cool.

You all have pretty solid forum.

Kyle, your fairy and your dlo could stand to be cleaner. The fairy set was kind of toe-y -- the closer the dex happens to the knee, the cleaner it is. As for the dlo, I suppose it's less cleanliness and more of a style issue that will work itself out the better you get at the move.

It's nice to see the amount of energy you guys devote to your basics. Keep working tiltless until it's really easy to bust 40+ contact tiltless strings. Don't feel obligated to rush into guiltlessness. However, when you do, understand that the way to do that is to school all of your BOP and slowly mix it in.

Both sides!!

Hopefully jam with you sometime soon.

Peace,
Sam

I love watching videos of people that are just a little above my level. It makes me want to push myself because I can see where my game CAN go. Thanks for putting this video out. I will watch it many times before I go to shred.

Great vid guys! You guys look like real kool cats, and I can't wait to shred with ya when I go up there this summer!

I agree with sampotter that you need to tighten up your fairies Kyle. Your dlo's looked to me, but also it's a move that will keep getting better with time.

Zeb your game's looking good. I really like the ducking inside > wrap > symp whirl. Very stylee.

Zac, of what I saw your game is doing good. Maybe work on basics some more to help improve your string length.

ok guys this isnt meant to be mean in any way but if you would read zebs first post you would notice that he said that my ankle was messed up. i have just as long string length as kyle and zeb and can work my tilt damn good in my eyes. i was doin shitty because of my ankle and i had a crappy session that night.

like i say im sorry if this comes out mean, its not meant to be.
its just that it kinda bugs me that im getting tips for things i dont need like practicing more basics( :oops: sry zero)

ill post a video of me later showing where im at in my game later,
Your next task: Go to the bathroom.
Wash your face.
Put your shoulders hunched upwards.
Look really, really slowly upwards towards the mirror like in the movies
And slap yourself in the face.
With your game face on.
And go shred with jim.
It'll work, trust me.
