haha, ok asmus, i will keep this in mind. ^^

footbag: nice 2,5 hours of shred today. again in the local swimming place, wich is the place for me to shred, cause its were i spend most of my time, it got showers and a nice terrace were i can shred. ^^
went into the session with the goal to work on my flip atomic. it was...well, i tried it before, i have a problem with my setting leg coming in the way of the dex leg, while fixing this i hit a sailing handcatch. bam, this was so uncalled and surprising. sadly i couldnt hit something out of sailing. only handcatches.
i had a small crowd again, they were blown away, i just showed them some stuff like i know i hit surely. it was fun seeing there reaction. ^^
no real new moves today, got pretty close to some atomic tricks on my flipside, tried nuclear, no worky now.

i also made a pic of 2 bags i love right now. lets call them the evil twins. cause they are evil. same colors, just inverted, totally different stiching. i love how the pents pop out of the bag on the one, looks sick when it get kicked. the other one is my regular stiching, its sweet as hell, just doesnt look that styley

girls: my girl broke my glasses when she kicked me in the face.... well, i was laying on the bed, teasing her, so i guess i deserved it a bit. but anyhow, now i´m seeing blurry. driving car is fun now. ^^

job: well i started a bag today, got 3/4 around it, at work....nice. i hope people are realising that the weather is to fine to go swimm inside and join a bath in a lake or something so i have finally time to stich 2 bags a shift. :D

I can personally say those two bags in the post above are amazing, you and I hit some amazing stuff with them today :)

http://modified.in/footbag/viewtopic.ph ... 666#319666

Alot of my thoughts about today are described on that page there, so I wont clog up your blog to much by typing it all again :)

I just wanted say that I had alot of fun playing with you today, and I hope I can play with you once more before I go. You are a good player, that even today I learned alot from.

Surely all of us can't wait to see the video you make with the footage today, it will be so much fun to Relive all of it again. [to bad most of my strings sucked :) ]

I'll PM you my address for the bag, even though you have my MSN already :)

massive session report. went to wiesbaden to shred with the local crew there. at first i was kinda disapointed cause not all the guys i expected came, but looking bag ( ;) )on it now, it was a hell of a session. so funny. suprisingly i met mathias again, a guy i met 2 or 3 years ago at a event and never saw him again. -.-
participants were: jay boychuk, matthias from mainz, julian and jasper from wiesbaden. (and a little russian boy who watched us for 2 hours untill i gave him a free bag to kick it around, he was so good, did lots of consec toe kicks, even stalled it, but then gave the bag back and left. -.-)

nice sidenote, i read in jays blog that he thought about what he first said to me. "do you have a bag here that i can buy", dont know how he thinks about it, but i thought it was funny, cause i suddenly realised that i have a reputation as a sticher.
also nice to see, everyone in the circle had a bag i made. ^^ i was so happy and pumped up because of that. :)

session went nice, around 5 hours, in the maintrainstation. :) but it turned out to be the coolest place ever, lots of crowd.

in the beginning i was so good, if i may say so. i hit blurriest (finally) first try! and at some point we got out the camera wich i totally forgot over playing and beeing excited and stuff. but my batteries were allready empty at that point so in the video i dont hit that good strings.
but here is what i hit (i wrote it on a piece of paper the same day, because i was afraid to forget some of it :D ):
blurriest, pixie torque, fairy torque, stepping ss dod, pdx whirl, pixie ducking butterfly and fairy ducking butterfly in one string, pendulous ripwalk, pendulous swirl, flip atomsmasher, g.y.b.a.s., gyro dyno, frigid dyno, ps rev whirl
i think i even forgot a bit..... but that is damn impressive for one session, i need to play more often with other guys at my/over my skill level.
a few things i was damn close to: superfly, ps whirl, ripwarrior, pedulous ripstein

what i remember form the other guys:
jay: blurriest b2b, blurry whirls bs, torques b2b...lots of sweet strings containing those tricks, even tricks he hit the first time this day were in his strings after a few minutes....
julian: toe blurriest, janiwalker motion and double blender galore....work on longer strings and you will kick ass in no time. he also hit (if i´m correct) spinning ducking double blender, not sure it might have been only one blender tho.
matthias: pendulous ripstein, mobius ad ps whirls in one string, zoid set in a perfect way, an overall super sweet style, totally relaxed and chilled, not like me, allways beeing jumpy and agressive and stuff....

as mentioned, we filmed, i will see if i can edit it as fast as possible, and put it online. you will be pleased, trust me. me in special is hitting a few "matt-cross-frightening" tricks. ^^ get ready for flappers like you never saw them...^^

puh, i hope this is a somehow good report. ^^ if one of the participants wants to say something, maybe stuff i forgot, feel free to do so!

and i hope to shred with you again soon, come too stuttgart, we will tear the old citycastles apart with our shred! :D thats an open (yet limited) invitation to all you guys that wanna shred with me here.

Holy Sh...Marco ! Big props for all those moves...Especially Blurriest and Stepping ss DoD (Double over Down if I'm not mistaken ? ^^)

Most of the moves you've hit I don't even know what they actually are anymore :D

Keep shredding and cYa at European Championship in Vienna (make sure to have at least one beg made until there, I promised long long ago that I would buy one of your bags if I have enough money and 10 months hibernation at the army coined some money ;)

Sounds like a great session!

Props on all the progress and stuff.

Hahah I read your posts in your voice now too, that is a great advantage you gain once you've met someone. I totally understand your tone and what it'd sound like when you're saying the things you're saying.

See you in Munich in a few weeks! 8)

8) tom you are haunted, thats some sort of deamon in your head, and since he speaks with my voice i am afraid. 8)
i am so looking forward to munich.

footbag: after watching the video stuff that was shot on monday i found out a few things. first is, i have a crazy style, like my steppings are exploding and stuff.... then i need to work on my spins, like spinning more upright, playing more upright overall. and i play to much for passerbys, my best combos came with passerbys standing around. :)

the footage itself is pretty shitty, its so shacky, thats not good, i have to see if my programm can fix this, otherwise its going to be no video, or at least a shacky one.

my legs are killing me, realy, i tried clipper stalls yesterday, no chance, a few minutes ago i could at least do a zoid pass, but only if i dont bend my legs that much. i wanted to hit superfly and p whirl this week, now i am happy if i can kick the hacky without pain by sunday.

girls: my girlfriend got her drivers licence(typo) now. i am so afraid, she told me nearly killed a huge bird yesterday, on day two of her having the licence. i am so afraid she will have her first crash within a week...

job: is a neccesary thing. and i gotta run to not be late. :P

footbag: still cant play realy, but i had a small session anyway. it was ok, i was forced to do stuff like infinitys b2b, spinnings and swirls. so i could drill these basics a bit. that was ok, but i couldnt manage to do even one try for ps whirl or superfly, so i will have to try again this week, maybe i am able to practise them.
on the other hand, i yesterday chatted with a fellow bagger, and he hit ripstein, send me a video, that pumped me, i wanted to hit it too. i did pendulous ripstein last week, again yesterday, so i tried if i could do it from clipper. first few tries looked good, and close, but then i got pretty tiered from the uncommon movements. to make it short, i was pretty close, but no hit, i think i could hit it within a session or two. we´ll see.

girls: ...

job: i have a day off today, and i need a new car, my old one will not pass the next "polution test" and will have to be trashed. i think thats pretty bad, i love my car, i dont want a new one. but thats what i will have to check out today, what will a new one cost, were can i buy a new one, do i want a used one, wich company will have the honor of selling me my new car.... tough day ahead of me.

beeing stupid: i think i´m stupid, in a way. i think its stupid to have that sort of tight bounds to a thing, like me and my car. i have to give it away, and it feels like giving my granny to an old dudes ranch or something. i am looking forward to my new car, no question. but i have so many nice memories on the old one, i even drove tom mosher around with it. ^^ so many nice places i have visited in this car, thats all so hard to believe i have to retire the car now.... so i´m kinda sad now.

footbag: i have been in wiesbaden again, just because the guys there cant organize a car to come visit me for shred... stupid bunghole knights..... :P
nice shred, everyone hit some nice shit, i hit motion, pixie dlo for the first time, found a better way for my barfly´s, and hit a scorpions tail again. also i hit a pdx whirling ankle smasher. imagine it like an pdx whirling grounded clipper stallberger, but with full force and no intention. my ankle hurts a bit now, but its okay, no shred for a week and i will be as good as new. i just cant let myself make a mistake now, there is no way that i will miss my shred with the munich crew....
oh, and i think i invented a new set, fairy symp swirling gyro.... i did legover out of it. if someone knows someone who knows someone who claims he saw someone hitting this before, shut up! i was first! :twisted:

girls: we scared a fine looking girl yesterday. well, i scared her, i think. she walked by, the rest was chilling, i played, was filmed. as she passed us i said, pretty loudly, "did it work? did i impress her?" i couldnt see her reaction, but the other told me she was rolling her eyes and shook her head. HAHAHAHAHAmuhahahaha, eat this biatsch.... :D

beer: i had a scottisch beer for the first time ever last night, it was kinda good.

i decided to post a few pics, but everytime i try to upload them my pc crashes. so no pics in this post.

footbag: finally had a session today, i didnt play for a few days, due to no time and no motivation. also i had bad toothaches, that made me not want to play. but today, i was feeling good, so i played, ignored the toothaches, wich disappeared after the session. :)
i had a few good runs, then started to drill steppings and atomic. stepping is getting better and better, atomics on my flipside finally seem to work. i hit atom butterfly > blur on both sides, not in one string, wich i think is nothing to worry about. also i tried to get my double dexes working on the flipside, but my left leg just wont do it, i could get crazy over this. i wanna hit barfly b2, but no, my cocky left leg thinks its better than the right and refuses to do what i say... fuck you.
other new things: blurry dlo, blurry eggbeater (finally, its called bedwetter righgt? if so, i am finally in the club of bedwetters. 8) ) dyno b2b x4, pincher b2b, stepping pdx swirl
other than that i had a few bad strings and i sweated like crazy coz it was so damn hot, even as i started playing around 7.30 in the evening.

girls: my girlfriend is in warzawy right now. i miss her so much.

car: today i got my new car, so exited, its one of the pics i wanted to share, but, as i told earlier my pc crashes when uploading, so amybe i post it later. it looks so nice, it matches my gentle and openminded personallity. :D

well, ok i can make it sound a bit less rockstarlikeish. i drove tom moshers lazy ass around in it because he was to lazy and stupid to take the train back to the sleeping place (because we shredded so hard that day..... ^^ ), and he farted in the car, so had to change the seats! :D
mosher wrote:It's almost shred tiiiiime! :D

i just cant wait, i am so stoked.... i could start right now! ^^
do you have any clue when you will arrive here? timewise? cause if you come in the evening of the 18th then i will go drink a few with a friend. and shred on wednesday, or the 19th....

ok. today i figured out that i want to enter the next online competitions. but, i couldnt decide in wich class. i think i will go open, since its making more sense for me to push me for the comp and not just do a titless combo. i figured out a few combos i could do, mostly 5 adds, one 6add, mistakingly i thought i could hit a beast, but that was just counting the adds wrong, but i think it would be possible, i would just have to hit.... stepping miraging barfly > phasing spinning supperfly > blurrier swirl or something like that. ^^

also i made a plan for my euros routine, i hope it goes allright this time. :)

my new car is nuts, i love it, it looks like a family old dudes car, but its just so cool. ac system, nice audio system (matt cross´music sounds awesome in it :) ) and so compfy, i just allmost dont care anymore that it only drive 155km/h, well, the papers say that, but its about to get tested how fast it realy goes, on the way to munich i hope to test it. :)

if my pc runs stable now, and it looks like it, i will post photos tomorrow. 8)

hy chris, i dont know yet, i wanna go, but i have to work till noon on the 30th of june, so i could maybe make it for the night and the sunday. maybe, i dont know yet. and if, and only if i come, i will have 1 or 2 bags the most, i dont have time to make new bags, or if i have time they are sold after 2 days. :) but i will see what is possible, maybe i get 3 bags ready, and maybe i come.

session today, was quiet ok, but too warm. big writeup about munich will come in day or two.

mosher, if you read this, maybe, i need to see you again, i couldnt make it on tuesday, and i need the facile, so we gotta figure something out while you are still in germany. maybe german champs, or when you return to munich....[/u]

you MUST come!
really, if you get here by 18-19 youll still have time for mind preparation and freestyle finals will not be before 22h. if i´m not completely wrong here nobody will fu.. you for not playing the prelims. so you could practice for your euros routine...

the finals show will ROCK! the musicians are so cool i cant describe it. its hiphob basically but they got the whole set of a jazzband and do rather dubbish sound. perfecly danceable, no gangster bullshit!

mosher is already registered but he might still end up joining matze and paul to go to fusion.

however... i´d be great to see how you advanced. after we met in berlin i was quite impressed... and i see you still work on it (i don´t, only net-playing)
