Ha ha. Well, the site costs 12 bucks a month. I don't expect anyone to pitch in, but I won't stop you. Appart from that I mainly need photos and videos. We need to show toronto that we really exist!

I still really want a simple message board on the site - just so that any of us can post our session times and locations. I want it to be as easy as possible for newbies to find us. I'm trying to get my web-savy buddy to help with that.

We're also going to need business cards, or flyers to pass out to really keen hackers. I think Camille will be handling that - let me know if you want the updated logo or any drawings for the design.

Oh, and let me know if you are opposed to having your phone number and emails on the site/business card.

Heya FATties!!! Summer is a-hollerin' and so is the footbag shred. Good news is that I may have a small chance of working in Toronto this summer at the CBC, which would mean downtown sessions on the regular for me. More in the present, however, I have an interview for said job on Friday May 4th at 2pm. Is anybody up for meeting up afterwards? Anywhere downtown'll work, I'll have the car. PM me or MSN me or email me anybody who may be down.

Hey Skippy!

It's been way too long! I don't think I'll be down for shredding on the 4th though just because it's the day before the Weed March and I'll want to save my energy. You ARE coming to the Weed March, RIGHT??

Other than that, I may be down sometimes, be sure to let us know! I can't wait to shred with you again man!!

I don't know if anybody has addressed this yet, but... HEMAN???? HAHAHA :D

Umm.. I have a blog on Hackrifice. Nobody ever uses it, because Hackrifice is kinda dead, but it's so hip and in, and wouldn't detract from Modified, since it wouldn't be like a competing forum...people would still go to Modified to post cool stuff.
PS: I LOVE my profile :D


Oh yeah, Johnny stopped by to see me at work a couple days ago and I got the impression that he was coming to Weed March... I don't wanna put words in his mouth though...

Skippy: stay overnight!! -- HUGE shred on Saturday! I don't wanna spend myself the day before either :( I've been haveng bad shin splints lately and I will probably skip MOST shred leading up to THE FIFTH.

Oh, and in response to Andrew's post...thinking about it, I've been playing for, like, JUST a decade now @_____@ I always said, like, 6 years or whatever, and I don't know if the two years-ish off "counts"....but it's been 10 years of awesomeness for me :twisted:

I may do an overnighter. If I can find a place to stuff my car and crash. If not, I will be coming to weed march. I won't have any money for weed though. Dangit. Anyway, it's not a big deal if nobody wants to play on the 4th. I didn't realize till after I posted that weed march is the next day. Seeya all there!

The site is beautiful. Thank you.

Erik, I love your profile too! So cute.

And Mike- yours is awesome as well. I love the photo! hahaha... and thanks for the shout out. :)

Sunday at the beach was amazing. I want to spend almost every Sunday there, even if not for shred.

Some of my highlights...that I can remember...were:

some toe drifters...they still need some work
pdx illusions bsos
butterfly>pdx illusion bsos
butterfly>pdx whirl
butterfly>pdx dada curve

I also found it amusing that I hit far pick up, almost bsos, on the first try, right after expressing that I had forgotten about them completely for so long...

It was a great day! Mike & Josh- I missed you. Cassy & Andrew- thanks for coming down- you guys are getting so good! Keep it up! :) Alex- that conversation about "Stereoman" was hilarious... I was like "no no, he's a man made of stereo! His ears are speakers." Good job on gettin Nathan into it. I think I asked you "Is Nathan your doing?" haha

And Greenwood... I am always speechless about your shred. You have changed so much and developed so immensely. It makes me feel happy and proud and everything nice. I will miss you when you are tree planting.

Yeah my neices are super into footbag! I had bought them bags and lavers a few years back but they grew out of the shoes fast... and their dog ate of their footbags and a "stupid boy" stole the other... They now have one of my cuddlebags and one of my freedoms. If their dogs dare touch those I will be having shiz-poo for dinner. But yeah, legovers right away. The other twin was hitting leg overs after like 3 minutes a few years ago. She was in crappy sandles this time... the beauty about these girls is that they succeed at EVERYTHING they try, I'm not even kidding. They just have to stick with it...problem is they live in the middle of fuckin nowhere and have no one to teach them. BUT they will be going to university in September...so I'm sure there will be a crew somewhere around wherever they go. They have the perfect body type for shred too... Dammit they should just shred their faces off... Can you imagine the doubles routines?! 8O

My friend Cristina is also very into it. She's teaching me longboarding and I'm teaching her footbag. :) She bought a bag at x-village that day. Oh yeah, we get a 15% discount on bags at x-village... I know they aren't the best bags, but they are good for beginners if you're looking to get someone into it. They have freedoms too. I think they are like $12.

Anyway- Business cards/Flyers- I can design them on Sunday or Monday...swamped till Saturday... and then hopefully they can be printed for Friday. Mike, if you wanna hook up the logo and maybe some of the designs you did for the site (if you want them on the cards/flyers) that would be rad. Thanks.

I was hoping to play this weekend...maybe Saturday afternoon? But me mums coming home from Italy Saturday night so I'll be spending Sunday with her. Shred during the week? Monday-Thursday? (weed march training regimen ;) )

Oh yeah, I took some sweet photos of shred at the beach, and I also have a few from 420...I'll put them up later. And I took some of the actual location for the site, Mike. I'll send them to you soon.

Swwweeett (about photos).
Umm, so the two girls that looked the same were your nieces? I didn't get that. I guess I always thought really young girls when you spoke of them.

So.....the beach on Sunday?????
(please say yes, please say yes...)
This'll be my last FAT shred, not counting Weed March :(

ohhhhhhhh weed march... haha yeah I try to avoid bringing it up elsewhere ever since I was severely razzed for doing so in the past. I'm surprised that Jorden wants to come....

Anyway Hey Greeny- you should change the name of this blog to:

F.A.T. {www.torontofootbag.com}
