good stuff

how long have you been playing?

well i've known about "hacky sac" for 4 years, but i found out how cool footbag was and ordered some lavers. the actual date was August fifth (my birthday) 2006. i quit though after KICKASS 2 because i felt insignificant, and started playing again in december.

so about 5 months

Once again, props.

Welcome to modified

Great first vid! I really like how it was focused on strings rather than a bunch of big tricks. You are very close to tiltless

Also your bothsidedeness is great too! A few big tricks on strongside, but for the most part it looked you were hitting all your basics BSOS, that's AWESOME. Props on spinning clipper. It's really unfortunate that KICKASS2 discouraged you, jams like that should spur you on to play more! I guess you've been kicking with RawSko? It seems he's been teaching you well. Keep it up

Create a challenge topic

People can give you some ideas of new links to hit and it will really open up your game.

the reason that it discouraged me was alot of what i just explained in a different post. it's because when i look and other begginers look (and this is not ALL the time) you see how much better they are, and how crappy you are. then you think that you can never be that good so then why play if you'll never amount to anything then your by your bedside crying your heart out...

a little bit of overexageration but i think that you get the point.
