Sick vid man!

Your style is cool, it looks like you keep your clippers as close to your body as you can.

Toe Drifter>Sumo=nice.

Rpt. it.

Way to finally release this without Blurry Flux!

But, the rest was awesome.

I bet we would too tom

Maybe one day I'll get over to north america and get to hang with you. Or, you could always visit here

Sorry Matt, I did try. But if I spent all my time trying blurry flux then I wouldn't have got the rest

I had about 6 new moves in there as it is so I think that'll do.

Hmm, I just keep my clippers where it's comfortable. I guess that's close.

Thanks for the comments

Any feedback on the video itself?

I liked tombstone b2b a lot.

Good video.

I thought it would have been in there, because of the still shot of the Grifter. It was basically the same position for Flux. Whatever, I still haven't got it.

I really liked this vid for a lot of reasons. One, do you always play on grass? That didn't seem to affect your game in the least, and I bet it's easier on the knees. Also, I loved the contrast of young Jaimie bustin out while the old people in the background play bridge. The shred was awesome. I tried to hit tombstone the other day, I think I'll use this vid to help skool it. What kind of bag is that? It looked like peng or mosher's bag.

I noticed the grass too; very cool. It also made me wish I'd played outside more before it got cold, and at the beach.

The grass, the music, and your awesome, smooth style made this video a hit for me. At some points you really reminded me of Dylan Fry (style-wise)!

Thank you Erik.... I consider that a huge compliment!! In some ways I do strive for Dylan's style, but I never considered myself to be even close. Thankyou.

10 points chris, it's a peng. I don't have a mosher yet. Key word yet

I never play on grass. I played there purely for the background, and yeah, I specifically tried to get random people in the background

Grass is.... a tad messy for me? Concrete feels more solid. which makes sense. Sometimes I move to the grass if I'm trying to hit a specific symp move but usually just concrete or carpet. Not that I feel I would hit any less good shit on grass. Just feels better on concrete.

tombstone is the best move ever.

Hey Jamieson,

Enjoyed the vid. Good variety and some rare links/elements!

A couple things I noticed. When you do your left foot clipper (and sometimes w/ right), the left knee is more bent and juts out further than the support knee. To allow for greater leverage (set height) control and angle of release, try getting the insides of both your knees touching and bending the same amount. You can even have the knee of the stalling foot in the crook of the support knee if you want. Also, be sure the support foot is facing inwards in relation to your shoulders.

For really good osis control, try having both insides of the knees touching or shin of stalling leg touching the calf of the support leg during the carry.

Hope this helps.

JM

Hey Jorden...

Thanks man! you're right, how could I have not noticed that? I have already begun to fix it, and I think it's already started to help my ducking and spinning.

Sometimes I think my form is great, and then I realise it's terrible. Thx for helping me with that.
