nice stuff Jorden.
Btw, nice instructional video also, I received it yesterday. I don't know who helped you out with filming it (I should have watched the credits) but the shots are very very good. The lighting is sweet, backgrounds are great, again: the lighting is fantatsic.

I'll def. pass this video onto the beginner shredders around here. Oh, and nice shred 30 too :)

-=Thurs, May 3rd, 2007=-

My life is a pretty big mess right now. So uncertain about every little aspect of the future. My Dad expects a lot from me and feels the need to plan out my 'perfect life' and make sure I abide by it. My ideas are completely different than his though.

Anyway, I went to go train to get my mind off things.

- 5 ring cascade, 31 c
- 7 ball cascade, 33 c
- 6 ball sync fountain, 40+c
- 4-ball async fountain + 1-bag inside kick
- 6-ball 864
- flurricane (both sides)
- gyro high plains > spender
- torch-r rack X 2
- gyro mofly
- whirr > double blender [rpt]
- surreal > torch-r rack
- gyro food (both sides) again
- blurry drifter > fog > pixie paradon [rpt] to end the session
Edit: - whirlwind X 4
- frankenstein > blurry flux

This is maybe the best thing about footbag. Its saved me more than a few times.

I hope things improve Jorden. Be happy you have footbag. Footbag is happy it has you. :)

I've hit blazing swivel a few weeks ago, so I don't really know if you invented it. But props on everything else. Bs clown is hard.

can't wait to see the video from your session with mosher. I can relate to the situation with your dad. when I was younger, my dad was totally fine with me making all my own decisions, as long as they were exactly the same as the ones he would have made for me ;)

he's gotta have some respect for you by now for your accomplishments as a footbagger and your gigs as a footbag performer. keep pushing forward, buddy. you're an amazing person and an inspiration. I'm in fredonia all summer, let me know if you're coming to lillydale. see you soon.
BRICK!

I hit stepping diving blender about a year ago. You've invented enough tricks anyways. :wink:

Oh yeah, what was the five dex trick you hit? It's cool if you want to keep it a secret.

PM it to me. :lol:

Nice vid Jorden! Everything looked really smooth and well executed

The shot makes you look like Jason Garfield... well maybe not quite as buff :wink:

Hey Jorden, I've been thinking for a while that regular ducking blender (diving, I guess?) would be a REALLY styley trick -- you should do it more :p

(Also, you should hit double spinning clipper > double ducking clipper [repeat] on video >_____<)



And by "should", I mean pleeeaaaasse.
