thanks matt

i have good news, i fixed my waylon bag!

it was my first 32 and i was messing around once with the weight and i made it like 90 grams, big mistake because i could get a straw back in to take out the filler. but finally after several months i decided to try again, and it worked! i took out much of the lead and replaced it with poly pellet. it actually plays great and its still about 50 grams or so. i cant wait to shred with my first love again.

here she is!!!

oh and here is a new bag i stitched up!

FOR SALE:

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 05 Jul 2007 17:53

In the other topic I wrote:Having your knee turned outwards would make Atomic a lot easier on you. I don't even know how you manage to set the bag like that.

Seriously, you're making the dex a lot harder than it has to be.

Darkshredder · Post by **Darkshredder** » 06 Jul 2007 02:30

sweet atomic, Ben. A little advice to pitch in myself, though: try not to jump with the dex. Stay low and dex high and fast. Other than that swell work. "New set? Hm. I think I'll just go ahead and hit reverse whirl from it."

I'll call you Saturday. Chris Dean is on standby to shred with us too

. Hopefully I'll be back in town tonight or else earlier tomorrow.

thanks for the tip pat that makes a lot of sense in my head.

i hit atomsmasher today using flip atomic (surprise, surprise!)

it was a pretty fantastic feeling i have to say. i think flip came a lot quicker because my left toe does not have the ultra awkward crooked set like my right toe. i cant wait to drill more atomics.

footed rev reactor too but i was too tired to go on.

last night i did ripwalk>far clip x5 and ripwalk>infinity x3

edit: video of flip atomic tomorrow or sunday.

flip atomic!

HG · Post by HG » 07 Jul 2007 10:22

that looks so much better than your weakside atomic! why dont you take the time to fix your right toe stall/set so you can have an atomic set that wont cause you pain in the long run? it will help with everything else too

honestly, if you listen to people just this one time, you will be pleasantly surprised

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 07 Jul 2007 11:03

trust me i have tried to fix it, i try everyday to make its straight. its just going to take a long time because thats the first thing i ever learned...toe stall. changing something that i have been doing for that long is a long task.

thanks for the comments though

Looks really great.

It's a bit leggy, but it still looks good. It'll probably work itself out.

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 07 Jul 2007 11:17

i just noticed that like 10 months ago i said my dream move was atomic symposium reverse whirl (reverse gary coleman) so i think im going to have to hit that soon so i can fulfill my dream.

but i have a question. when your doing atomic followed by a symposium, do you plant the atomic dexing leg then lift it up again and follow through to the symposium reverse whirl?

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 07 Jul 2007 14:46

a nice little picture here:

BenRea · Post by **BenRea** » 07 Jul 2007 16:18

oh yea!

Saturday:

flip atomsmasher, legbeater, rev reactor
Legbeater>Blur
Reverse Gary Coleman

what a day wow!

i had a lot of fun today hitting all of this new stuff including a new 5 add which just so happened to be one of my dream moves! i didnt hit it by april, which is when i said i wanted to hit it but...i hit it,

. so i dont really care.

i also worked on straightening out my right toe.

now that i hit that big move i think i need to slow down a little bit because i know one of the biggest mistakes is getting caught up in stuff that is over your head. i have already done that once and im not about to do it again.

happy 777!

Atomic Symposium Reverse Whirl

im pretty confidant about it actually.

^^^10 months ago (to the day), missed the target by 3 months. oh well
