Well, I guess I should really update about last Friday!

I had some runs that were longer than I've ever done before!

I also hit Grifter, it doesn't seem too hard.

But then again, I didn't even try it on flip.

Oh well, all I know is that Friday was awesome, I can't remember the strings, but we got some of them on tape!

OK, well, I've gotta go,

Later

Let's see I'm up in good ol' Fargo, North Dakota right now freezing my balls off.

I'm gonna try and have a session soon, though I don't know where. Hmm...

While I ponder that I'm gonna talk about the session I had with Josh on Tuesday.

It was pretty good!

I randomly hit:

Paradox Torque bs

A few nuclear tricks mid-run!

That's all I can remember...

I may or may not have come close to flip Toe Blur.

FLIP SUMO!!!

My shoes are currently in the process of being modified.

Woo!!!

It's a little cold in Fargo. Craig and I are gonna go disc golfing then we're gonna try shredding afterwards, should be a blast.

Well, that's all for now,

Fargo huh? I took a trip up there this summer to shred with the Fargo footbag club listed on .org.
Basically they are just a couple of kids trying to make it on their own. When I went there they were just kickers. YOu should look them up they might smoke a dube with you!
Billman- May I suggest some spinning tricks? I bet if you dialed some gyro mirages you would have no problem with vortex. Maybe you could hit vortex to sumo!

zeroman13 · Post by **zeroman13** » 31 Dec 2006 15:59

He's hit vortex and gyro mirage Ben!

But don't worry, when he gets back to Az he'll have to be playing 3 times a week to catch up to us

You need to learn a new set Conrad, pixies are nothing anymore for Mike and myself

, maybe learn some weird set, maybe blazing?!?!?!

billman_c · Post by **billman_c** » 06 Jan 2007 19:13

Oh yeah!

It was cold yesterday and I really wasn't hitting a whole lot.

I was trying downtime atomsmasher and had it off my foot so many times!

Other than that it didn't really seem like too much was really working.

Well, gotta go,

Later!!!!!

I am finally off work long enough to try and post in the ol' blog.

We had an awesome session on Friday with Ken!

We had a six person circle which made it really hard to get warmed up, and on top of that I've been in some sort of footbag funk since vacation.

I can't really remember a lot that happed during the shred that everyone else hasn't already posted in their blogs.

I will remember this though...

Crunch the abs on eggbeater... <-- advice from Ken
Wait... I have no abs <-- self observation

That one's gonna be a little tricky, I think I'll have to start doing sit ups

Well, talk to you later,

I'm tired

I'm gonna try and have a little drill session tomorrow though to try and get back into the groove a little bit.

Let's see, we had a session on Friday at the rec center and I'm just getting around to posting about it now! Woo!

I've been working all weekend and it sucks... lots.

The biggest thing I remember about Friday was that I hit Reverse Torque.

I had some pretty good runs, nothing new, but it got me back in the groove a little bit.

All I can say is that my old shoes are probably gonna die sometime soon, the sole is falling off the right one

Well, later!

billman_c · Post by **billman_c** » 25 Feb 2007 09:55

We didn't have a session this Friday!

I'll talk about our Monday session though:

Josh and I went and shredded with Josh Rose and it was totally awesome!

Josh R. had his pixie shuffle working for him, it seems like it's better than mine. He mostly tried runs and things of that sort, it was fun to watch

Josh M. was doing really hard things and I can't remember what they were, I'm pretty sure there was a blurry torque in there somewhere and a few good attempts at rubberman.

I hit a couple of cool tricks:
Backside Assassin - (the greatest porn movie ever made starring me by the way)
Pixie Ducking Blind Rake a.k.a. "Captain Picard" - serious inside joke with the name
My runs were doing fairly decent which made me pretty happy, I did a little pixie shuffle, some runs with a couple double dexes, almost atomic drifter again, and nearly the "sumo" pixie ducking legover (you have to see it to understand).

Well, that's all for now,

Later

This post isn't footbag related at all, however, it's huge news!

I sat down and played my NES for three and a half hours today with one intention...
That intention was realized!

I beat Ghosts 'n Goblins!

That's right! Both loops, on my actual NES, so none of that save state crap, and I was frustrated beyond belief!

Just had to write that down.

Damn that's NUTS!!!!!!!

Your blog was only on page 3!

Sweet session last night!

billman_c · Post by **billman_c** » 19 Apr 2007 12:12

Oh Josh!

It is true, we had an awesome session on Tuesday!

Josh was going crazy with awesome links and combos and Rubberman and fearless.

Mike's flip pixie was almost duckable for some reason.

I had lots of strings?! Amazing, strings are not usually my friends. My clipper tricks were going a lot better than normal, for some reason I felt like I was more relaxed than normal and I was holding them longer. Eggbeaters on my strong side seem to be nearly effortless, I can do them flip but it just feels backwards believe it or not.

My new trick:

Toe Blizzard

I almost had flip smog all too many times.

Well, that's all I can remember,

Later!

I had an awesome session with Josh today over near the skate park by his house.

Josh was hitting some amazing stuff. You'll have to read about it in his blog when he posts.

I hit a few new tricks:

Fairy Ducking Butterfly
Fairy Ducking Mirage
Fairy Eggbeater

I have no idea how I pulled this one off.........

PS Whirl

I hit PS Whirl on command so many times, it was crazy

! Not only that, I was consistently setting head height Fairy sets!

I also had a few decent runs with some Fairy tricks mid-string. Ever since that little three week break, it seems my form has gotten better. I can't complain about that one. We also received some props from random people, too! I footed Flaming Tard so many times I didn't even know what to do with myself!

Conrad,

PS whirl & Ducking fairies! Fairy Nice!! Too bad I worked! Argh! Hopefully we will kick one of these weeks! Don't run anymore just shred!! Shredding a few times a week for you seems very good for your game!!

mike....

Hmmmmm....

I haven't posted here in a while, well, I'll post now!

After a month and a half I finally had a session with Josh and it was awesome! Josh was hitting cool things and I wasn't as out of it as I thought I'd be. Blake, the new guy to the circle joined us at about 5 I think. It was awesome, I hope we can all get more sessions in.

I did manage to foot Dominatrix, it would have been nice to hit it!

Well, that's all for now,

Later!
