i wish i would have been there for that one!

its been cold and david clavens told me to drill kicks so thats what im working on right now. tomorrow i want to drill clippers more. i want to see how many ss mirages i can hit b2b. i really want to drill pixies so i can hit plo. double legovers are fun. ive been trying to do some clouds but im not really sure how they are supposed to be done. i dont think ive seen a video where someone does them. pincher sets would be fun too but i think thats moving too fast for where im at.

i bought brian's valentines gift. its rad

this past week ive been the only one who has had money and itll be that way on into next week too. id like to do something for myself to make me feel better... like get a massage or a facial. something girly. i guess ill need to wait till my birthday. its may 29th if anyone cares.

anyway... im gonna go to take a shower and go to bed. im really fuckin tired.

another hr metal shop session. 730-830pm

i think instead of getting better im getting worse.

flip pixie set skooling. still pretty onesided on that, but i can do it 2add all day.

blurry toast > string

swerve (drake) bs

drifter>rip>rip>drift

datwberger

ive really gotta drill. i think alot of it is my stamina. ive been sick, and havent really played worth a shit since before nyj. i would think since ive quit smoking again (almost 2 weeks now) that i would have alittle better stamina, but i guess not.

oh, and i got a bloody nose 3/4 thru my sesh. played thru it, since it wasnt dripping much. stopped playing 15 mins later, cleaned up, and called it a day.

ah. the weekend is practially here. 4 hrs of work 2marro, and no classes. piece of cake. i want to finish 2 footbags before sunday evening, since i have two trades i still havent finished.

shred today in my new climas. its weird getting used to all white shoes. here is what happened in my 30 min drill session:

ss mirage (b2b, duh) x 10

clipper stalls x 3 (on the same foot... just kicking it up and stalling it)

legover x 7 (b2b)

pickup x 3 (theyre looking like rakes right now... i need to fix that)

i did this weird shoulder bump in the middle of a string:
ss mirage > legover > legover > left shoulder bump > left toe > ss mirage
... i have no idea what happened... i just kept going. i wish i would have had it on vid cause i bet it looked cool.

i need to work on my clippers on the op side too. i dont want to get one side solid and not have been working with the other side too. my left foot seems retarded when i try to crank it... maybe ill work on some cranky stretchy things.



i think ill take brian out on a date sometime soon. i can never figure out where to take him though because they dont have footbag restraunts. i guess he can settle for steak or something.

45mins in soundstages.

not too bad, just fucked around mostly, tried doing long tiltless.

all basic 2s incl pickup, sspickup, far legovers, clip mirage, and ss lo, all bsos. ended up being a 30ish contact string, atleast twice this sesh.

new :arrow: fog and fairy ss dlo.

im bsos pdx ill now. like every time.

pdx. mirage>ssbutt >rpt x10

inf is up to 15ish contacts

played with flails. didnt hit anything out of it, but worked it.

datw b2b changing dir x4.
my dd's are super nice on one side. 10/10.

first try smearefraction.

hollys mirages are really getting there. her strong clip is coming up too. i think i saw her hit about 5 good clippers today. shes really working hard to get good. (just gotta work out that retard leg :wink: ) im proud of her, and she deserves props. im sure its not easy with small feets.

holly made my favorite color combo today, just for me. red with white pents soccer. so visible. so nice, her bags are like butter. i seshed with it, and i love that bag. just like i loved my bag of the same colors. and my abshire of the same colors. ( david clavens got the reproduction of that bag by me at nyj. hope he likes it)

guess im going to clean up my room. tomorrow im going to try and run, and shred the same day. maybe even finsh the bag i cut out today.

more tomorrow.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
it was me, brian, dat, and mosher. we were at worlds 2007. the hotel had disney rides inside. we took this crazy ride all the way from the hotel suite to the footbag site... what you do is get on your knees on this skateboard thing and it slides into a tube. the tube fills halfway with water and we rode the water ride to the site. but instead of footbag it was dodge balls that you do footbag tricks with. benny (ny) was doing some really cool tricks and jorden moir was juggling the dodge balls. kolo and mirken were throwing dodge balls at henry... and there was this CRAZY 4 square game with zeke, steve goldberg, emily, and tom k. the next thing i remember was seeing a dodge ball fly towards our kicking circle (me, brian, tricia, and reid) and going straight for tricia while she was kicking. she didnt notice so i jumped in the way, got hit with the dodge ball, and kicked in the face by tricia.
somehow i ended up riding the dumbo ride with matt cross and vasek and smoking this gigantic blunt.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
worlds is gonna be sweet
i wish i could video tape my dreams. why hasnt science figured this out yet?!

hit moshers tail today. im working on putting it in a string to make tom happy but im having trouble standing up straight after i finish. im sure ill get it soon enough.

i did the longest string ive ever done today. its not impressive... maybe 6 contacts... but still a best for me.

we are trying to plan out an event for tennessee. (me, brian, and lee) we all need to meet up and set a date to have it. we are gonna try to have it at the pavillions by the skatepark where we shred at. its next to wave country so hopefully we can plan this when its really warm outside that way we can all just go swim afterwards. we will probably start a thread sooner or later to get everyone else's ideas.

yo guys - whats up. a TN event would be phat! I would definitely try to roll out to that with a friend or two. My ankle still isn't healed yet but in a month or two I should be good to play. Props on mosher's tail Holly! That's phat - I haven't even hit or attempted that ever. In fact I don't even know what it is. Anyways, props!

Dude and Brian - terrage>symp mir. is a nice combo. I've been trying to hit terrage off and on for a long while.

Word, well, later guys.

Props to both of you.

Holly: Major props on the clippers, mirages, legovers, and pickups.

Brian: You're not getting worse. Your strings are getting longer and you're starting to hit more difficult tricks. You're mostly tripless now, right?

I am definately looking forward to another shred session with you buys this week.

P.S. - I had an amazing shred at my house today.

You know what Holly, I feel pretty shitty about my game too. In this sport progression can be compared to climbing up a terrace. There are all these personal levels you are climbing but before you can climb to the top of the next level your gonna have to struggle for it. It does suck because just when your starting to feel like your getting good you realize that you could be better. It is good that you are recognizing this because now you know what you need to do to be as good as you know you can be. If you dont like something about your game, change it. Youll get to the top of your own terrace it just takes time.
Smear/fearberger huh? Does that mean that they ended on inside stalls or something? That midnight/atlantis bag is SICK! High 5!

Anyway, thanks for the bag and keep up the good work. Keep busting.

im glad ive been working on lacking concepts in my game. its all coming along now.
i think my next session will be trying to score that sick footage for comps. we'll see if i feel like trying.

life is starting to get tough. school is the reason why. little/no sleep. the hours behind the computer screen melts my brain.

horrible week.

tuesday was hard to handle... it being cody's anniversary. now its been 4 years. what hurts me the most is that i cant really go visit. his mom had him creamated and put in this bronze box that she keeps in his bedroom. shes forbidden me to come visit because i bring back too many memories and its hard for her to handle. i understand her pain but shes a bitch for denying me visits. i can still remember everything that happened. like its all playing out in a movie in my brain. im trying to be strong. i tried not to cry all week but ive broken down. nothing could have prepared me for losing him. i guess im scared. i love brian. i dont know what id do without him.

ive been sick most of the week and last night was hell. i puked for a good 3 hours and slept on the couch so i wouldnt wake up brian. still feeling really sick.

i have to send off my laptop to get it fixed. its costing like $400. stupid fuckers. i love macs but i swear the apple company hires retards.

i got my hermey bag in the mail yesterday. probably the only good thing thats happened this week. its beautiful and i love it and i cant wait to kick it when i feel better. oh yeah, we got fabric yesterday too! LAPIS PWNS!

brian and i are planning out a valentines footbag raffle. its gonna be like all the other raffles, you send in money through paypal and whatever the price we decide, youll get a ticket. and have the chance to get more than one ticket. the winner will be drawn from a clima shoe on valentines day and will be announced that same day too. yall are gonna freak when you see these bags.

brian, i love you.

someone send good vibes towards me and brian... life has been kicking our asses

yeah, this week has been pretty sucky. lost my keys. (with the only key to my car...). an online order has been fucked up for a week, and may not get here in time. and lots of other smaller shit happened, but theyre uninteresting.
