Good work on that Sick 3 link, keep it up though. No slacking!

Props on all the other stuff man. Flip Far Legover is a very nice feeling move once you get it down, kind of rrefreshing honestly... hmm, that sounded weird. Hopefully you know what I mean. 8 P

And yes, if you do Dyno's uptime you'll end up smacking it out of the air with the outside of your foot. Make sure you pivot just the slightest bit while dexing, takes less effort that way, don't spin around like crazy though. A little goes a long way. Try out Toe SS Dyno, Toe Far Dyno, Clipper Far Dyno on both sides. They are pretty fun to do. And Regular Dyno back to back is sick too. Consider those challenges.

Just one tip though, the Clipper Set Far Dyno has weird timing compared to regular Dyno's. Start pivoting while it's uptime and start the dexterity at the apex. Works 9/10 times for me.

I have done all those except for dyno>dyno.

Thanks though.

Shit, lost half of my post, here it is again:

Damn. <_<Killjoy>Far Dyno>Butterfly>Far Dyno. You drill both sides that way. And if you've already done some of those then just slap me.

Ok, the post thing keeps deleting half the stuff I'm writing so here it is:

Damn. Killjoy.

Ducking Dyno? Far Dyno/Dyno to Paradox Whirl/PS Whirl?

A Far Dyno drill:
Butterfly>Far Dyno>Butterfly>Far Dyno. You drill both sides that way. And if you've already done some of those then just slap me.

Hehe, thanks.

Played again:

Pdx Whirl b2b.
Got the last link 3/5 times on one test.
Really long string. Long enough to make me have to stop because my legs were tired.

Ugh. Shins hurt today. :\ I have to basically hold on to the rail when walking up/down stairs to keep from being in a lot of pain.

Poo.

OUch man. Bad luck. I definitely know that feeling. Try going easier on the Whirls then.

Props on the improvement on your Sick 3 link. Just make sure you rest up so you're in good condition to film it and hit it nicely!

Shins still hurt.

Still had a pretty productive session.

Nothing to really report about, though.

I did get my sick 3 on camera but missed the catch. I'm kinda pissed.

Pyroman924 · Post by **Pyroman924** » 24 Feb 2007 14:13

Ah, bad luck bud. But the thing to remember is that you still hit it. It won't be as hard to hit again because you know that you can. Just catch the damn bag this time.

Hehe. Go easy on those shins though man.

Worked on flip stuff, and my strong side stuff magically got better. It was weird. I was throwing dyno midstring and stuff. Fun times.

Also got Paradon>Pdx Whirl quite a few times.

EDIT: OH, and my fucking retarded stepmom scheduled a fucking dentist appointment on Tuesday after school. I shred every FUCKING Tuesday after school, and I tell my parents that every fucking time. Sometimes it feels like everyone wants to stop me from playing footbag. The tuesday after that I have to do a fucking band concert.

I said fucking 4 times. I meant all fucking 4 (5) of them.

Pyroman924 · Post by **Pyroman924** » 25 Feb 2007 18:17

Props on all the Dyno midstring stuff! And Paradon>Whirl too!

Nad luck with Tuesday though man. 8 / I know how that goes. I hate it every time.

Hit your Sick 3 quick though!

Post by **Zac Miley** » 27 Feb 2007 05:02

Got my sick 3 and submitted it.

Post by **Zac Miley** » 01 Mar 2007 15:09

Apparently the dentist appointment got cancelled.

I got my sick 1 without lavers on (different shoes). I forgot to bring them to school that day.

Played today, did pretty good. I was using tap quite a bit and I did flip stepping midstring a few times.

I also came close to PLO>PLO starting on strong.

Pixie Paradon>PS Whirl quite a few times. At least one of them had to have been clean, hopefully.

New drawing:

Critique if you would, please.

Thanks.

Sweet man! Great you got that in! So you made the deadline then?
Props on everything man!

That drawing is incredible. Is that a Self-Portrait?
The shading is beautifully done, the only thing I notice is the left eye looks a little awkward. I don't really know how to describe it but it looks crooked maybe?

Yeah.

I dunno about the left eye. I'll look at it. Again.

Pyroman924 · Post by **Pyroman924** » 01 Mar 2007 15:26

It's not like it's comspicuously messed up. It actually looks fine. it's just when I look at it for a bit that it starts to look awkward. It may be me seeing things honestly.

I wasn't shunning your critique, I'm definitely going to see if there's a way that I can figure it out and fix it.

I would actually prefer you rip the thing apart (figuratively) instead of drooling over it.

Pyroman924 · Post by **Pyroman924** » 01 Mar 2007 16:01

I know. I just wanted to make sure it didn't come across like it was obvious, I have to look for it to notice it.

And I'd love to rip it up(figuratively) but there's nothing to rip up.

Want to make a really shitty picture for me so I can? Hehe, just kidding buddy.

Old trick from the video that wouldn't work:

Clean?
