Alright. So does 2 at Yonge and Dundas work for everybody? We could play at the beach instead, but that increases the travel time of anyone busing into Union...

Had a pretty good session today with Alex and new-guy Nathan.

We played at Dundas square and it was packed- lots going on. There was live bands and DJs, tons of people, crazy guys, drummers, hotties, and lots of onlookers.

Alex played really strong. His string length average was higher than mine. He's not looking so wild- his sets are tight and controlled. He worked on diving clipper alot - and hit it, though he should probably just worry about clipper for now.

Nathan has great toe stalls already, and can to legovers and mirage. He hit his first pickups too. Way to go!

I hit flip ripwalk out of nowhere- which is weird as I've not hit it strong side yet. I also put alot of work into ducking and spinning clipper- which I hit many times strong side. Flip is coming along. I at least don't feel retarded when I attempt it.

Anybody up for a session on Sunday?

EDIT: PS, let's not call ourselves FATasses! I prefer FATties, FATheads, FATsters etc.

Anyone wanna play at the harbourfront centre today? Luminato is going on, it's the last day, and it's amazing. I watched fire jugglers there the other night and people were really into it... I wanna go later on, like around 5 or so... Anyone interested? Mike, I'll give you a call in a bit.

Is everybody still up for a night session at the 'nipple' on Wednesday? 10pm ish? I know I am! I tried to have a solo session this morning, but only lasted 25 minutes due to heat and poor air quality. Go night hack!

Hey I just noticed that this is my 600th post on modified! I was wondering, how many posts do I have to make before I'm good at hacky sack? Can someone at least tell me how many posts I need to hit gyro mirage BSOS?

bwaahahaha... 666 posts. :P

Yeah I checked out the nipple last night on the way to Andrew's, it was amazing! Sooo brightly lit! And at like 3 or 4 a.m. (yeah we ended up going to the Annex to play even more pool 'til really late).

So I'm down like a clown. Wednesday at 10 p.m.

For those who don't know, "the nipple" is a gazeebo at Mel Lastman Square... I've played there a bunch... it's where Paul Toews (who started F.A.T. with Andrew Weglarz) first started playing footbag.

Exit at North York Centre station (on the Yonge line) and go outside... walk up the stairs to Yonge St. level and you can't miss it.

It looks like a GIANT NIPPLE.

mike, I think it's an inverse relationship... of course, if that were true, it would mean I'm just about the worst bagger ever, considering my post count.

:)

Last night Alex, Camille and I played at a great spot - the 'nipple' at Mel Lastman Square. It's a bit far for me (when the subway stops running), but it is such a cool, wel-light, sheltered place to play that I didn't mind. We played from 10pm to about 4am! (stopping once for bubble tea and fast food). Crazy!

I hit flip ripwalk again 8O , some infinities, as well as pixie butterfly BS, and hit 30 tiltless with butterflys, ducking clippers and a few other 3s. Alex hit pdx. mirage BSOS! Camille hit butterfly > pdx. mirage BSOS (she's hit it before, but not in a while).

Andrew challenged me to drill flip clipper x100 at the end of every session to build some crank - and I'm taking his advice. I hope this leads to flip osis!
